Firstly, I’m not here to steal John Sheeran’s thunder: His Weekly Lineman series is a fantastic review from within the trenches and recommended reading. Film review is a difficult and time-consuming process. Kudos to anyone that does it right, and consistently.
That being said, how about this Bengals running game? It’s great, right?
For the most part, it was terrible.
Uh hum.
Terrible.
Offensive linemen were routinely overpowered, slow to recognize stunts, and it didn’t help opposing defenses were comfortably saturating the line of scrimmage, displaying minimal concern for Cincinnati’s passing game outside of A.
