The Cincinnati Bengals defeated the Denver Broncos yesterday. Most will say they survived, but the defense earned that win for the entire team. Is there anything to take from Sunday’s snap counts that can help us better understand why Sunday’s game went the way it did?
No consistency offensively
The Bengals offense struggled on third downs only converting four of their 13 attempts. It seemed like the Broncos were able to hold up man coverage very well against the likes of Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, which most teams can’t do.
