Bengals will go into their bye week knowing they have to improve their run defense

This is embarassing watching them against the Pats.

The Bengals had the look of a Super Bowl contender early on, but they have immature receivers, a weak offensive line that can't protect the QB, and a mediocre defense (especially against the run). It's early enough to make some adjustments, but Palmer can't carry that team all by himself.
