Ted Karras says Bengals need to 'wake up' on offense

Looking back on the first quarter of the season, the Bengals have room to grow on offense

Veteran center Ted Karras painted a grim picture of the Cincinnati Bengals' performance in their recent NFL game against Jacksonville, describing it as "brutal" and acknowledging that the team "deserves" to be honest and brutally honest. The team's offense has been struggling, particularly in the run game, which has been a major concern.

Karras emphasized the need for the Bengals to "wake up" and improve their performance. The Bengals have lost two consecutive games, each time giving the opposing team a chance to win on the final drive. Karras also noted that the team has been inconsistent, failing to meet their initial expectations for a highly explosive offense and a Super Bowl contender.

The team's dissatisfaction stems from their inability to consistently execute, particularly in the run game. The Bengals' offensive coordinator, Dan Pitcher, admitted that yesterday's performance was not good enough in the run game, but he believes the team will improve and develop their offense to win more games.
