Also keep in mind who they played down the stretch - Chargers, Browns and Steelers were all pretty good offenses.
The Bengals held those teams to 26, 26 and 16 without the benefit of any legitimate offense with Driskel at the helm. If you don't think the defense played damn good under those conditions, then I don't know what to tell you.
I unfortunately think this shows that the players struggle to learn a new system.
But yes, the defense did improve under Marvin. One thing I'll say was the offense was pretty bad by that time of the year though.
