NO PASSING GRADE

There are many reasons for the Bengals' problems this season, but the biggest is a dreadful passing offense. The Bengals have thrown for more than 200 yards only twice and have five TD passes in 13 games. Akili Smith and Scott Mitchell have a combined passer rating of 50.0.

The Bengals are on pace to finish the season with 1,857 net passing yards. Barring a dramatic turnaround, they will become the ninth team since the introduction of the 16-game schedule in 1978 to finish a season with fewer than 2,000 net passing yards
