Losing an aging Tyler Boyd has had more of an effect than i realized too, because they won't put Jermaine Burton on the field until this week.
It has nothing at all to do with the Chiefs. Zero, zip, nada.

But it was the Chiefs. The Bengals were riding high leading up to that game. KC wins, but Cincy felt robbed. Because Lou does a great job against KC they most likely feel that they can afford to lose Bates and Reader. It’s also probably why he doesn’t budge on his scheme. They probably lack the talent for him to run his scheme.
