The funny thing is, the Bengals d-line absolutely murdered the Bills' o-line last year -- Taylor was under siege all game. They can bring it.

This upsets me also because Geno was near the top of my 2019 FA dream team. 

Both he and Beckham are now gone. The pickings get slimmer every day. The FA talent next year ain't great.

Honestly without any injuries to Bengals like last year they did and a bad OC. 

 

They are really a good team. Wouldn't be shocked they do really well this year.

 

Their revamped OL is going to be key. They need Glenn to stay healthy and Billy Price to play well.

Until they lose in the first round of the playoffs.

We need to get it out of our heads that there is going to be this plethora of free agent olinemen next year that we are going to pick from.  If they're set to be FAs next year they are unlikely to stay that way.

 

Rebuilding the line in 2019 must come from the draft and I don't care if the first three picks our RT, G and C.

 

Other wise we'll be signing more Bodines next Spring.

He sure was. 

 

:unsure:

Who should get credit for the sack? Ok I'll tell you what happened it's clear as day. It's called the tickle move and after seeing it in action it's genius. You can see him go directly for the armpits tickling.

The Bengals strategy for OL and DL is working

 

 

Von Miller, Watt and Oakland’s Khalil Mack are missiles seeking heat. So-called “three-technique" interior linemen such as Geno Atkins and Aaron Donald crumple guards and centers. The quickest way to the quarterback is up the middle, not around the side, blind or otherwise.

 

“Times have changed," said Bengals line coach Frank Pollack. “We want to be firm inside-out from the pocket. If we’re going to be loose, we’d rather be loose wider, so (the QB) can step up."

 

Most quarterbacks will say their biggest concern is what’s right in front of them. If the pocket resembles a teenager’s bedroom, it limits their vision and disrupts the quick-passing game so many teams use now. Andy Dalton suffers noticeably when his inside protection fails. Same as most QBs.

 

There is a reason Tom Brady doesn’t spend a lot of time on his back. He gets the ball out quickly, his running backs are usually good receivers. Brady’s worst games have come when what insiders call his “cone of vision" becomes narrow.
