The Cincinnati Bengals' mission to make life difficult on Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix in Week 4 was already going to be a major challenge. Their pass rush leaves a lot to be desired outside of Trey Hendrickson, and that's being gentle about it.
Nix could be in for a big prime-time performance on Monday night if the Bengals' defense doesn't step up. Their front is slated to face a Denver offensive line that PFF grades as the NFL's best pass blocking unit.
Unfortunately, for the second game in a row, Cincinnati will be missing a potential spark in the form of their latest first-round draft pick.
