At the end, our defense got the offense the ball at the end of the 4th with a chance to win before the doyle fumble. Considering such a low level of expectations, they were potentially only 1 or 2 mistakes away from getting us a win. I don't think that is bottom 5 against the bengals.

The D gave up a 75% completion rate at 8.7 ypa, 5.1 ypc on the ground, and 27 points. Any of those stats would be bottom 5 if carried out for a season. The two turnovers are great. Particularly the stripping of Green because we’ve seen it for two games now and it seems to be a focus. But the completion percentage, ypa, and ypc numbers back up with what I saw watching the game - the D did not compete well on a down for down basis. The offense having chances to win the game does not in my view change the defensive performance. If anything the offense’s performance protected the defense quite a bit. Throw last years offense out there and the defense would have looked significantly more inept.
