With the running game working, why can't we score more points?

Yes it has !

And like as nearly always the case I don't think you can pin it down to just one or even two things. It's a combination of several.

1. Play calling is a large part. For one I don't think the empty backfield in the red zone does us any favors. ZT seems to forget he has Eifert when we get down there. And I think we've been way to predictable with formations and personnel.

2. Our QB's

3. Oline couldn't get any push run blocking in first 10 games

4. Receivers have been unreliable at times with drops and not getting open.

5, Just typical Bengal implosion - penalties, fumbles, interceptions, blown assignments and so on.
