I would say lous scheme is very similar to Seattle scheme. Both teams are single High safety teams, both like to press their CBs, and both run an under scheme. Seahawks calls there's a 4-3 vs the Bengals call it a 3-4. Also the majority of the time both teams are in Nickle so the base doesn't matter as much as it did in previous decades.
The biggest difference is the Seahawks value speed in the middle of the field. Bobby Wagner and KJ Wright have been the most athletic pair of LBers in the nfl for the past decade. The Bengals on the other hand still play Bynes 60% of the time.
