How many times have the Bengals trailed this year? Twice?
What do teams do when they are behind? They pass the ball. I'm not surprised one bit that the Bengals are rated low in passing yards allowed.
Agree here. Looking at pass yards allowed for a defense is similar to judging QB's by how many yards they throw for. I prefer looking at opponent's efficiency when judging pass defenses.
Seahawks have allowed a 100.5 passer rating on the season.
Bengals have allowed a 94.9 rating.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
