Scenario:  Ben returns but lacks his trademark mobility and elusiveness that allows him to extend plays.  That coupled with both Pouncey and Beachum being lost makes them very beatable.  Bell still gets his yards vs the Bengals linebacking corps, but the defense bows it's neck in the red zone and minimizes the damage.

This is the game where Hill is unleashed.  With a week off to heal up, he finally puts distance between himself and the injury he sustained on the non-fumble vs San Diego.  Hill rushes for 160.  Dalton connects with Eifert in the end zone twice.  

Bengals win this game 38-17.  Ass kicking and a statement game.  No the slugfest we usually go through to beat this team.

Running is not the answer in this game.  They are 8th against the run.  They are 27th against the pass.  Eifert, Green, and Jones will give them fits.
