However, we currently have 749 threads pointing out things wrong with this Bengals team, I just thought it was nice to find something positive to latch onto, as a ray of hope for next year's team.
I keep trying to equate the disappearance of those two, to teams running the ball for 250 yards a game on us and rarely playing with a lead. And to be fair that probably is some of it. But I don't thinks it anywhere near all of it.
I think as always it's not just one thing it's a dozen ! And one of the bigger "things" that kinda gets overlooked in the big picture, in a way is:
You have one guy on whatever side of the ball that's not up to snuff you can get away with masking it a lot. You have two guys that ain't getting it, it becomes very, very tough ! You have three guys playing subpar and it's just impossible.
And everything effects everything. Hopefully Tupau will be a bit of a good piece to build around next season.
