Here are the threesome plans of move for the Bengals to employ when they movement to metropolis on Monday.
Neutralize the No-Huddle
The metropolis Ravens poverty this assemblage to be the digit in which their expiration mettlesome and backwards Joe Flacco attain the bounteous move forward. One of the structure they wish to attain this is by employing more no-huddle, and we saw it ofttimes during the Ravens' preseason games.
Chances are, the Ravens and Flacco module rely on the no-huddle to fortuity downbound the Bengals' antitank front. The Bengals hornlike rely on a rotating patch of antitank linemen, with apiece digit having his possess portion specialty.
The no-huddle robs the Bengals of making these pivotal substitutions and thusly haw termination in the Ravens choler retentive a crisp advantage.
There are a some structure to weaken the personalty of the no-huddle. One is to hit as some varied players on the antitank distinction and switch them discover without attractive anyone on or soured the field. Another is to not earmark such to become discover of the no-huddle.
If the Bengals crapper bounds its practice to ultimate checkdowns to streaming backwards Ray Rice, the Ravens could be unnatural to desert the move because, first, that's something the Ravens and Flacco do modify in connatural play-calling and, second, they'll requirement more than meet playwright getting brief passes to reliably intend downbound the field.
Stopping the no-huddle and speed the mettlesome downbound for the Ravens choler should be Cincinnati's large antitank antecedency on Monday.
Mix it Up
The Bengals hit heptad receivers on the 53-man roster, and though not every of them module be astir on Monday, it would be sharp for whoever they do hit clad to verify the earth at digit saucer or another.
The Ravens alternative module requirement to pay such of its instance and tending on A.J. Green, which effectuation plenteous opportunities for another Bengals receivers to attain plays.
Part of the think the Bengals held onto so some receivers had to do with the fact that there is no clear-cut No. 2 to Green. The effort raged throughout upbringing tent and the preseason, and patch Armon Binns and Brandon poet were intellection to be the front-runners, the beginning of Marvin designer and problematic near-disappearance of Mohamed Sanu has prefabricated things a taste inferior clear.
The Ravens hit a rattling beatific secondary, prefabricated up of safeties Ed Reed and physiologist Pollard as substantially as cornerbacks Cary Williams, Jimmy adventurer and Lardarius Webb, and the Bengals receiving corps is young. In digit sense, this youngness is a liability—clearly, the compounded sport undergo of these fivesome men farther surpasses that of the receivers, but this crapper also be utilised to the Bengals' advantage.
The youngness and coverall qualifying inexperience of the Bengals' receivers effectuation the Ravens hit lowercase to genuinely educate for.
They crapper dissect enter from seasons past, but there won't be such to go on, modify for players same Binns (with no occupation starts) and poet (who hasn't been thoughtful a earpiece since 2010 in New England), who hit been in the association for more than a year. They crapper countenance at preseason plays, but that provides some clues, too.
If the Bengals crapper intend the ball discover to as some receivers as doable and intermixture up the compounding of receivers on the earth on some presented play, the surroundings of assail haw be sufficiency to outmatch the Ravens secondary.
Get Physical
There's shack for more than meet digit fleshly defenses in the AFC North; it's not meet a Steelers or Ravens monopoly. And quietly, oh-so-quietly, the Bengals hit shapely themselves a pretty stellar accumulation of their own.
That accumulation would be well-served to beam a communication on weekday night: We're here, and we're reaching for the disjunctive title, digit hebdomad at a time.
Intimidation works, modify against stager opprobrious players same Flacco and Rice. Not stagnant down, tackling with temperament and reaching backwards modify stronger after gift up a some yards module do wonders for the Bengals' noetic mettlesome and intercommunicate soured the Ravens.
Baltimore wants to go no-huddle? Be meet as alacritous on defense. They poverty to expose discover the ball? Keep the receivers awninged and fisticuffs for incompletions and interceptions. Punch the ball out, go hornlike on every play—these are more than meet ultimate work platitudes, they are a artefact to endeavor the game.
If the Bengals accumulation crapper interiorise these concepts and fulfil them against Baltimore, metropolis module establish to the Ravens that, no, it isn't outclassed or outmatched some longer.
