From Hobson’s Quick Hits:
-Another tough one for the defense. They did a good job in the red zone holding the Cards to one touchdown in six red-zone tries. But they also gave up the 15th most yards in team history with 514. The Bengals have allowed 500 yards in their history 25 times, five of them in the last 15 games. On Sunday they allowed 266 rushing yards, eighth most in history. And four different receivers had catches of at least 23 yards. Plus, they had just one sack, meaning they’ve had two sacks in the four games since the opener.
Something, ANYTHING, has to change on this defense. They are failing at every level. Can’t stop the run, can’t pass rush and can’t defend the pass. At this point sell out to stop the run at least.
