Win vs. Dolphins Can't Cover Up Worrying Trends for Bengals Offense

The Cincinnati Bengals offense wasn't supposed to operate like this in 2022. The Bengals are defending AFC champions, have an offense loaded with skill players and employ a quarterback in Joe Burrow who was supposed to be an MVP candidate this season.

Cincinnati also rebuilt its much-maligned offensive line in the offseason, drafting Cordell Volson and signing Ted Karras, Alex Cappa and La'el Collins.

Offense was expected to be the Bengals' team strength, but it's been far from the explosive juggernaut most expected. Cincinnati came into Thursday night's game against the Miami Dolphins ranked just 20th in total yards.
