Summary
The Bengals’ defense is finally turning the corner on its tackling woes—after years of missing over 170 tackles, they forced four turnovers in their opener against Tampa Bay but still racked up 13 missed tackles. Young linebackers Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight Jr., both among the league’s worst last season, were flagged for three each. While some misses stem from aggressive ball-hawking, the departure of tackle-heavy safety Geno Stone and the emergence of Jordan Battle (who missed just one tackle) offer hope. With new players and a tougher schedule ahead, tackling could be their biggest strength this year. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
