Cappa was a stud against his old team. And Collins continues to be the weak link.

Man, they sure do undervalue DJ Reader out there. Without his efforts yesterday, that first half could have really gotten out of hand.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Way to notice. Reader has been nothing short of stellar for our D.

That guy ran around Collins quite a few times.

Looking at Williams too.....nice rebound for him after struggling early and dealing with injury.

He ends up on the ground WAY too much. Thankfully the FO was really smart how they structured his contract. They can get out of it after this season with very little dead money.
I could definitely see them going OT in the 1st if they don’t go CB or DE.

Cappa barely gets talked about, but he's been one of the best players on offense this year.

Nice seeing Boot Hill fill in on the edge a few plays. Hope Hubbard is alright. Ossai also played great in my opinion filling in
for Trey and making the hit on Brady that caused an interception I believe to Flowers who also played fantastic as the grades
show.

I don't think they get rid of him. He's had quite a few really good games. Don't know what injuries he might be playing through.

I’m not even necessarily saying they should get rid of him. Just that it’s an option if they want to draft his replacement.
As for injuries his back issues are well known.

Jonah W. had a good game but Collins although better than some prior Bengals in the past, is upgradable. Flowers has found his niche with the team and does it very well. I remember TE use to destroy Bengals, not any longer.

So, seeing as how Jonah has started to regain his form the last several weeks, and Volson continues to grow beside him.....what is your guys' opinion on keeping him around?

Well yeah if there's a stud RT at 32 then by all means grab him.

Jonah is here next year whether we like it or not. They picked up the option on him.
He's still super young and is capable. I'd be OK giving him an extension if he continues to improve next year.
Overall, I think the OL has played decent this year. I do think they have really struggled when defenses throw extra guys at them on blitz pickups.

So they charged Collins with a sack for that ridiculous play where Burrow stood there for 6 seconds before being touched?
