Here is a couple things about Geno
1.) He is only playing 25% since he has returned and he is only playing on passing downs. So why is everyone surprised that he isn't making tackles or run stops? The guy isn't getting many opportunities to do so.
2.) He is a defensive Tackle his job #1 priority isn't to get sacks it is to collapse the pocket and make it easier for the edge players to get sacks.
3.) At the end of last season Geno had 1 QB hit in the last 6 games. However the rest of the guys in Dunlap, Lawson, and Hubbard all were playing at a high level last season and were benefiting off of Geno. This year Geno got hurt and both Hubbard and Dunlap haven't looked the same in a Bengals uniform. Geno was the missing piece for our pass rush even though the numbers do not show that.
