2-0 in their last two games, 4-1 in their last five, and tied for first in the AFC North. The Cincinnati Bengals’ 0-2 start feels like more than a month ago.
Everything came together during the Bengals’ 35-17 rout over the Atlanta Falcons, and they left us some interesting snap counts to examine.
Total Snaps
From the get-go, the Bengals (68) out-paced the Falcons (47). There were minimal answers to Joe Burrow and the passing game as Atlanta’s depleted defense was kept on the field for most of the game. Instead of altering their game script, the Falcons stuck to their run game and dropped back to pass just 13 times.
