Eifert returns

Agreed. Even at his peak, you just got the feeling that he was capable of even more. Unfortunately - for the number of great receivers we had in 2015 - we didn't pass enough. We had one of the most efficient pass games in the NFL and one of the worst rush attacks, yet we finished 26th in pass attempts and 7th in rush attempts.

Limited passing attempts + multiple good targets (Green, Jones, Sanu, Eifert) = some of them were under-utilized. Maybe all of them.

This was a theme of the Marvin Lewis era. Not being able to run the ball well, but almost always being a slightly more run-focused team. It hurt the offense.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
