The defensive line got pushed around last night. Reader was gassed playing 97% of the snaps and he had zero help inside. Covington was the best of the bunch and I see him on his back twice during the game.
Lawson was getting a little pressure but Mayfield had a a nearly perfect interior pocket to step up into to slow Cincy's edge rushers.
Honestly seen it coming with Tupou opted out, Wren on IR, and Geno and Daniels missing time it was going to be ugly. Then Bengals need to invest heavily in the trenches on both sides of the ball during the offseason. They need to do it through both the draft and Free Agency. Duke doesnt have to go get the most expensive guys either just quality rotation guys.
