Watching the CIN @ BUF game during lunch...the Bengals did line up with 5 DL a few times in this game which I found interesting but mostly their base 4 DL and 3 LB...lots of zone in coverage.

They played more man under Lewis.

Assuming they stick with this DEF, I expect them to roll the S to Juju, and mix in some pressure mixed if the edge boys are not winning.

BUF played mostly zone...if Butler does the same Eifert could kill'em with the intermediate stuff.

The Bengals have tried to solve their lack of linebackers by using 5 defensive lineman.... Keep in mind, guys like Sam Hubbard and Carl Lawson might be guys that could play a little outside linebacker, but they are d-lineman by trade. I think it confused Seattle and ultimately led to success. San Francisco destroyed us on the ground with this set up though. There's a reason more teams don't employ that look.

Vince still DNP. That's rough. Him getting back is the most important piece we're missing right now.

Assuming Zac Taylor has watched the tape of the SF game, CIN should pound Mixon 25-30 times in this game and maybe another 10-12 times run playaction.

Barron has to make some plays or the staff needs to go with UG3, but because of the green dot situation he will probably be in there.

Bush, needs to quit biting so hard on the playaction fake, but that will come with time.

Seems like a sub pkg more than anything...they didn't show it a ton vs BUF.

Don’t worry @cincygrad Bud Dupree is pretty much worthless. A 3rd string LT made him completely obsolete last week.

Bud Dupree going up against another backup LT in back to back weeks. Expect another zero on the stat sheets! Put in Ola!

Yep...those bozos are not going to make a move until the bye week I'll bet....if then.

That said, with Chick questionable this week, I think we might see more snaps from Ola.

They need to send a message to Bud. Give more reps to Ola and hopefully Ola starts dominating. That should open his eyes a bit.

Im over Chick. He should be the reserve guy at this point.

Another week without Nix & VWill. More half-assery from Barron is on the menu. Hopefully they give UG3 some reps.

I'm playing it safe. I want the guarantee. So I'm going with the opposite of whatever @mrschaney says.
