No preseason. No tape. First time the offense has defenders coming at them full speed, all out.
A good, smart, innovative coach will come up with some kind of wrinkle to offset all that and not just go out there running basic sets and plays. Something like runs and passes where the oline attacks instead of reacting, using the backs and TEs more to get the D thinking too much. Splice in some hurry up now and then. Something other than what LA is going to come in looking for.
It would be nice to see the Bengals do that to someone, rather than have it done to them, for once.
Money spend during the offseason on good free agents; check
New hotshot QB that looks every bit the part; check
AJ back and healthy; check
Jonah Williams healthy; check
Weapons galore on the offense; check
Defense with some talent in key spots; check
ST continuity and experience; check
A feeling that things are coming together...that's not just unrealistic hope; check
Now it's on the coaches to put in a game plan and game manage in a way that gives players the best chance to win.
No predictions here, just waiting to see...
