CINCINNATI -- Andy Dalton has thrown only three touchdown passes in four games, a statistic that points to why the Bengals (2-2) are treading water.The passing game is missing something important, and its not the quarterback.Daltons new-look receiving group hasnt kept up with the one from last season, the most glaring change from their 8-0 start in 2015.A.J. Green has two touchdown catches, and running back Giovani Bernard has one. At this point last season, the Bengals already had nine touchdown passes.Their scoring is way down as a result. Last season, the Bengals scored at least 24 points in each of their first four games with a total of 121. This season, they havent scored more than 23 in any game and have only 78 points overall.Instead of touchdowns, theyre settling for field goals. Thats the main thing theyre trying to correct heading into games at Dallas (3-1) and New England (3-1), places where they havent won since the 1980s.Weve got a lot of new faces in there offensively, left tackle Andrew Whitworth said.Theres a lot of guys that havent been leaned on to play that many snaps or have never played in the offense, so theres going to be a growing part of the season. Now its time to really see guys take leaps and bounds forward.The Bengals knew there would be a break-in period with their new receivers . Marvin Jones and Mohamed Sanu left as free agents, taking away the No. 2 and No. 3 receivers from last season.Plus, tight end Tyler Eifert -- who set a club record for touchdown catches by a tight end with 13 -- tore a ligament in his ankle during the Pro Bowl and hasnt played yet.The Bengals filled the receiver openings by signing Brandon LaFell and drafting Tyler Boyd from Pitt.LaFell has 13 catches in four games for 208 yards without a touchdown. Boyd has 12 catches for 130 yards without a touchdown.Green has bailed them out with a couple of big games. He caught 12 passes for 180 yards in an opening victory against the Jets, and he had 10 catches for 173 yards in a win last Thursday over Miami.Oh man, its just fun to be lining up across from him, getting plays alongside him, communicating with him, Boyd said.Watching him make plays like that, its amazing. Hes a guy you know you can count on any given play at any given time.The Bengals are trying to get the rest of the receivers up to that level when they get close to the goal line. Theyve thrown for a lot of yards -- their passing game ranks third in the NFL.But theyve struggled inside the opponents 20-yard line. Theyve converted only 31 percent of those chances into touchdowns, the worst in the NFL.During the 4-0 start last season, Eifert had touchdown catches of 13, 8 and 9 yards; Green caught TDs of 16, 80 and 67 yards; Jones scored on catches of 45 and 16 yards; and Brandon Tate had a 55-yard touchdown catch.We should have more (touchdowns) than we have, offensive coordinator Ken Zampese said. Weve put ourselves in bad situations on our own -- self-inflicted. Regardless of who we have in there, were better than what weve shown and well be better as we go forward. Well make sure.Game notes The Bengals are 1-5 all time in Dallas, with their only win in 1988. Overall, theyve lost five of their past seven games against the Cowboys . ... The following week, the Bengals visit New England , where they havent won since 1986, dropping their past six. ... Its unclear when Eifert will be back. He got his left ankle taped and participated in a light workout with the team on Monday. Hes practiced on a limited basis for the past two weeks.---Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Yeezy Schoenen Goedkoop . -- Bobby Ryan helped the U.

Ian Poulter already can feel his heart pumping a little faster and his eyes getting a little wider, two indications that the Ryder Cup is almost here.Theres just one difference this time.His hands will be on the wheel of a golf cart at Hazeltine instead of on a putter.Poulter, the European that Americans love to hate in the Ryder Cup, was having his worst and most painful season when he shut it down in late May because of an arthritic joint in his right foot that made it difficult to walk, much less practice.It took three days for Darren Clarke to make him a vice captain.The role is a big one, Poulter said Tuesday. As a player, youre sheltered from what goes on behind the scenes because you dont have much time to think about whats going on apart from playing golf. That role has changed significantly. Im going to be experiencing something very new.The last time Poulter was at a Ryder Cup without golf clubs was in 1993.He was 17 and folding shirts at Jack OLegs Golf Center in England when Poulter and two friends scrounged up enough money to go to The Belfry. They found a house where they could pitch a tent in the backyard garden for three pounds a night. He was watching when Nick Faldo made a hole-in-one against Paul Azinger, a match that ended in a draw. He remembered thinking how cool it would be to do something like that.And then he did.His nickname is The Postman because he always delivered points -- 14 times in 18 matches over five appearances for Europe. He became part of Ryder Cup lore when he made five straight birdies to win a fourballs match at Medinah in 2012 that sparked Europes shocking comeback.The image of Poulter at a Ryder Cup starts with his eyes, which seem to be on the verge of popping out of their sockets.And now?I should hope the weather will be such that Ill be wearing sunglasses, he said with a laugh.Poulter sees his role, along with the other four assistants, as helping Clarke wherever needed later this month. Discussing team strategy. Helping with pairings. Thoughts on the golf course. More than anything, he figures he will be most useful working with the six rookies on the European team.Clarke took Poulter to the EurAsia Cup in January, and Poulter won both team matches with partners new to the format -- Danny Willet and Bernd Wiesberger.dddddddddddd Asia didnt have the quality of players that Europe will see at Hazeltine, but what struck Clarke was how well Poulter handled the rookies.While he delivered on the golf course with three wins out of three, I also saw his influence off the course, especially among the younger players who were experiencing team match play for the first time, Clarke said. When he spoke, everyone listened. And the same will be the case at Hazeltine.Poulter was being groomed for this even before his foot injury.His form wasnt great two years ago going into Gleneagles, and Poulter was asked to play with Scottish rookie Stephen Gallacher. They were soundly beaten by Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed, and European captain Paul McGinley later said he wished he had given Poulter more time for his role.The endless debate is how much a captain can influence the outcome at the Ryder Cup, and the assistant captains would seem to have even less of an effect. Whats intriguing about Hazeltine is that both teams will have assistants who are sure to be noticed.One is Poulter because he has been so successful -- and so annoying to so many Americans -- in the Ryder Cup.The other is Tiger Woods, because hes Tiger Woods.We think people are going to be watching him watch golf, U.S. captain Davis Love III said. So we know this is going to be different. Its a lot different than Davis Love being the assistant captain for Corey Pavin. I can fly under the radar. Obviously, people would recognize me. But if Im driving in a cart, its not going to cause a stir. Were going to have to do a little bit more planning for Tiger when we move him around.Not many will be watching Poulter watch golf.But if they know anything about the Ryder Cup, they will recognize him. Hes the Englishman who speaks his mind and wins his matches. Poulter believes he has earned a measure of respect for his Ryder Cup success.Americans love someone that fights to the death, and thats something Ive certainly given to Team Europe through the years, he said.Thats what hes trying to do now. Just without clubs. And without the attention.Both might take some getting used to. ' ' '
