D.J. Reader is the biggest unsung hero on the Bengals defense

Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo has put together some great defenses so far in his time with the team. His defensive schemes have helped utilize the strengths of his players and limit some of their weaknesses, which has led to two consecutive AFC Championship appearances and one trip to the Super Bowl.

The Bengals' secondary is full of talented players. Linebackers Germaine Pratt and Logan Wilson are one of the best duos in the NFL, and the defensive line has some talented edge rushers, including rookie Myles Murphy and veterans Sam Hubbard and Trey Hendrickson.
