The Bengals are talking about throwing more to their tight ends, and they like some of the early returns on Ben Utecht, the former Colt they signed as a restricted free agent.

This might contribute to some Bengals wins. Their offense has been relatively one-dimensional the last few years. Throw to Chad, Throw to TJ. Throw to Chad, Throw to TJ.

vaughn9 ..Was thinking the same thing. Title could be Bengals are thinking of throwing to their WRs less, Bengals are thinking of running the ball less....

If Utecht can catch even 50 balls it will open up the WR passing game as a healthy Todd Heap does in Baltimore, Dallas Clark in Indy, Witten in Dallas and so forth.

My thoughts exactly DEVO.

It took them too long to catch up to the rest of the teams in the division. Everybody else has their decent, if not good, TE in the AFC North and they've had them for years.

Furthermore, they are just lucky in all this: they sign a TE to give them "two" TEs right when their #3 WR gets arrested/suspended/cut/whatever-we're-calling-what-happened-to-CH15.
