THE BLITZ projects the Cincinnati Bengals as the 10th-least run-oriented offense in the NFL near the goal line (in a neutral context) at the present time with a 40.2% red zone run rate.The Cincinnati Bengals have gone no-huddle on a mere 2.3% of their plays outside the two-minute warning since the start of last season (2nd-least in football). This deadens the pace, leading to less volume and stat accumulation.The Cincinnati Bengals have elected to go for it on 4th down just 15.7% of the time since the start of last season (6th-least in the NFL), which usually means less offensive volume, less touchdown potential, and lower offensive stats across the board.The Cincinnati Bengals have utilized some form of misdirection on a lowly 38.8% of their play-calls since the start of last season (6th-least in football), which likely makes the offense more predictable and less effective.
