First game against Cincy was schizo. We were steamrolling them in the first half, then came out and did nada in the second half. Bad D, O was ineffective and hampered by atrocious officiating, and coaching was ugh...so bad, esp on D.
Double Chase. Get pressure with front four... minimize the blitzes. Keep their receivers in front of you. Hell, we may want to play cover-2 zone. Minimize their big play potential. The Bengals are explosive. Burrow is legit, and Chase is their Reek. Higgins and Boyd are no slouches either. Bracket Chase all day long. Make Burrow look elsewhere. Hell, if we can get them to focus on Mixon, we will have a much better outing.
On offense, hit the accelerator and do not let off until the game is over. If we jump out early, great! Just don't relax or let off. Seemed like the second half we were on cruise control. Hopefully the lesson was learned and we continue the boat race into the second half.
