Vigil is not good. The defense was not good even when he was around. In the first four games (when Vigil was averaging 10 tackles a game, as if that's a measure of quality) the Bengals were allowing 28.25 points per game. That number right now would make them the 29th or 30th scoring defense (opposed to the 31st they were coming into today).
They probably miss Lawson a bit, but he wouldn't help the lack of tackling and the getting gashed by the run game.
Agreed. The defense struggled even with those guys.
Lawson did generate a lot of pressure...he just didn't get a lot of sacks.
The issues with this team are far beyond injuries.
