Cincinnati Bengals: 5 takeaways from the offseason program
There was a lot to like about what the Bengals showed in voluntary OTAs and the minicamp. Quarterback Andy Dalton has looked sharp, 2017 first-round pick John Ross is healthy and making plays (and missing some), 2016 first-round pick William Jackson appears to be building on his impressive first season and there’s confidence new offensive line coach Frank Pollack’s energetic and demanding approach can help the team fix its biggest problem from a year ago.

Who will be the Bengals red zone targets in 2018?

It was also an improvement from 2016 where the team had a percentage of 53.70 and ranked 18th in the league. Can Cincinnati improve their red zone efficiency in 2018?
