Point I'm trying to make is it always is a 2 way street. You can pick and choose any reason you want to find. The offense built a 2 possession lead. The Defensive Coordinator that you want to fall on the sword for has made public claims that his defensive scheme plays it's best when the offense has built a lead. Yet, that never seems to be the happen.
Hold him accountable for his responsibilities. So many times it has been bad from his end. For just an example that is quick off my memory. There was an instance last week where it was 3rd and 4, Denver had the ball and he takes Willie Gay his best sideline to sideline LB off the field to insert a 4th CB. Denver converts the 3rd down with the RB picking up the 1st and eventually goes on to score. Point is this, put your best players on the field in those crucial situations. They don't convert there and they don't go on down and score. And this was with the shitty ass denver offense.
Bengals and the Bills have to be licking their chops to face his defense again with dumb calls like that.

Is this a joke?
We gave up 24 points to an elite offense. 7 of those points coming off an interception. We intercepted the ball on a critical possession and we threw and out’ed it. We won the coin toss and we gift wrapped them the winning score with an interception.
We gave up 24 points despite our offense giving our defense horrible field position and putting them on the field the entire second half.
What halfway reasonable person blames the bengals loss on our defense. That is a stretch Armstrong reach right there. Our second half offense wasn’t just bad. It was on another level of terrible
