A couple of picks or fumble recoveries or something, maybe even a defensive score like we used to get early in the season. Maualuga worries me, as teams seem to be specifically targeting his over-committing proclivities (I think maybe that's what happened with both of Ray Rice's big gains). Dunlap is apparently at his most healthy in the last month, so beating up the non-throwing shoulder-separated Yates would seem to be a big focus to achieve that.

I keep expecting them to come out & commit to throwing the ball all over the yard (like 2nd half vs Denver, by necessity), but that's not in keeping with Marvin's seeming goal to barely win every game by a single point.

Benson duplicating his last playoff performance vs the Jets would rock, but Houston's D is special vs the run, plus Benson seems to have lost his second-effort burst to keep popping those 1o-15 yards sprints up the middle that now typically yield 6-10. The majority of BScott's touches need to work.

Go special teams! Coverage once again needs to come up huge & Tate had a huge last game vs rats.

Going on the road here might actually be in the Bengals' favor.

    - That's part of the reason why Marvin plays it so conservative on offense -- CHB, 16:15:33 01/05/12 Thu
