But they also list "plays with broken tackles" and Bengals were 24th with 111.
PFO calculates "broken tackle percentage" based on the number of plays instead of total missed tackles (I guess because a ball carrier can only be tackled once per play). Bengals rank 20th in "broken tackle percentage" because our defense faced so many plays it lowers the percentage.
