Episode Details

The Cincinnati Bengals’ revamped 12 personnel helped the offense stay on schedule in Week 1, and the offseason moves showed proof of concept.

Jake Liscow and Joe Goodberry break down how tight ends Mike Gesicki, Erik All, and Drew Sample fueled a potent offense, while the reshaped defensive line rotation, featuring Dexter Lawrence and Jonathan Allen, overwhelmed the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ highly ranked offensive line.

We also hit areas for improvement, including finding ways to push the ball downfield on offense, and Jordan Battle's coverage on defense. Can the Bengals build on this momentum against the Houston Texans, and will their new strategies stand up to real AFC contenders?
