No huddle all good as offense sizzles

aaORCHARD PARK, N.Y. _ The Bengals took the wraps off their no huddle offense in Friday night’s offensive meeting and it was running back Cedric Benson that untied the bow in Saturday night’s first three series that were impressive enough for head coach Marvin Lewis to tell his quarterback and running back to grab some bench after just one snap into the second quarter.
Sure, in their best quarter of offense since they put up 17 against the Lions all the way back in early December, quarterback Carson Palmer looked like his old point-guard self hitting nine of 11 passes for 95 yards and two touchdowns while dishing a 2005ish 142.2 passer rating.
And, yes, wide receivers Chad Ochocinco and Terrell Owens looked like NBA shooting forwards in the fast-break offense while rookie tight end Jermaine Gresham looks more and more like Rodney Holman, his Astroturf ancestor in the up-tempo scheme first hatched in Sam Wyche’s Cincinnati of the ‘80s.

Re: Bengals vs. Bills
i see alot of talent on the defensive side as well. but they are over pursuing , and not breaking down. over running plays where stops could have been made in the backfield, but went for 5/6 yards. it's simple to fix, break down, watch the runners belt, where it goes the runner has to go. you cannot be flying aimlessly in latteral pursuit, and have a guy duck, or juke n you fly right by them. nuge nailed a very long field goal that hit the camera man on top of the head, would have been good from 60.
