The Cincinnati Bengals are very good at drafting wide receivers. It’s somewhat of a specialty of theirs. They’re pretty good at quarterback as well. I’ve already written about the front office’s inability to draft offensive linemen in the Zac Taylor era.
Now, it’s time to take a look at the defense because it’s not much better.
After back-to-back solid defensive weeks (against sub-par offenses) on the road, Lou Anarumo’s defense just crumbled in the second half against a talented Eagles offense that had been underwhelming before they came to Paycor Stadium. While the Eagles were 4-2 heading into their matchup with the Bengals, their offense wasn’t putting up the points one with their roster should.
