That was my initial thought as to why we ran the ball so much in the second half, but we were throwing left and right and carving up the Bengals D in the first half with Thuney at LT.
I would guess (haven't seen defensive formation stats) that it had more to do with how the Bengals were playing us in the second half. I think they adjusted and begged us to run. And the fact that we were picking up chunk plays on the ground a solid clip - that makes it easier to stick with it.
