So the Texans beat the Bengals

[ghz in pittsburgh]

Yes I know different teams and I've already said to many here in Pittsburgh Stroud is the real deal. The Texans did it to the mastermind of Bengals D Coordinator with a simple strategy: run the ball and throw deep.

Singletary, yes that Singletary, ran it 30 times and gained 150 yards by himself. I don't think he was given the balls 20 times in a game in 4 years with the Bills.

In the Bills loss to the Bengals, other than Allen, we ran the ball a grand total of 8 times for 24 yards.

I said before, all of those changing picture stuff on D to confuse your QB goes away when you find out you have to worry about stopping them on the ground first. The highlight won't show much of those runs, but all the pretty passes Stround had in those highlights happened for a reason ...

Re: So the Texans beat the Bengals

Keep in mind that prior to today's game, the Texans had the league's 30th ranked rushing attack. 3.3 yards per carry. They sucked. CJ has just been amazing for them.

Also, the league/Bengals have the Bills/Allen figured out.

Not to take anything away from Stroud. That accuracy will allow him to have a great career, but let's let the rest of the teams catch up to him and then see what he can do.

not surprised really .... Higgins out Hubbard out ..... they are starting to deal with injuries.

Texans had over 500 yards offense I think.

Another knock on the Bills coaching staff. They never even tested Cincy’s run D.

Watching Dan Campbell coach today makes me so envious

That's the problem with having a defensive guy for the HC.

The Texan's assistant head coach is also their running back coach - Danny Barret.

Dan Campbell - another offensive HC.

The structure of the Bill's coaching chain of command is all wrong for a guy like JA and as long as McD is here, things won't change.

Re: So the Texans beat the Bengals

The reality is The Bengals didn’t look all that great Vs The Bills either. Kincaid doesn’t fumble and the Bills probably win. Burrow looked absolutely terrible today and threw 2 awful interceptions that cost Cincy a win. The AFC is still wide open after KC. It’s a muddle of Jekyl and Hydes

Divisional. Those happen all the time. Heck when the Patriots were kings, the Dolphins were garbage, they’d still give the Patriots fits and beat them occasionally

The Dolphins had great success against them that's for sure.
