Quick look at Patriots-Bengals
Not much news so far today, but as I begin to break-down the Bengals game Sunday against the Patriots (not that other people haven't seen this element yet), the key is how the Bengals handle the run.
New England is seventh in the NFL in rushing at 126.7 yards a game. The Pats will throw former Bengals star Corey Dillon and rookie Laurence Maroney at the Bengals.
The Bengals allowed 170 yards on the ground at Pittsburgh but still won.
I recall what linebacker Brian Simmons told me before the season even started:
"Different week, same thing. We have to stop the run."
