Did he have a great game? Nope, was he one of our better performers? Sure.

Folks need to understand that he is currently not the weak link of  this Oline.

Not the weakEST.....but weak nonetheless.

He's the 2nd weakest link, and still pretty bad. He had a good game against Suh, I'll give him that. But he still struggles and gets pushed back more often than not.

Difference is, Ogubehi has been very bad and struggles down the stretch in games. He gets in the way and pushes rather than engage in blocks and anhcors. He just moves his legs more than he should.

Don't go by PFF. They don't give detail like they once did and their grading system has been shotty as years have gone on.

Can you tell me why Gio was given a 51.9 grade? Because I got nothin.

The Bengals have two weak pieces. Bodine and Ogubehi. So 3 out of 5 good O-linemen doesn't make us have a great line anymore. We've been spoiled. And it's not going to get better if they really want Ogubehi to be the successor to Whit and Fisher to take over at RT.

PFF just lost all credibility listing Bodine as a decent performer and anyone on the defense having anything but a negative score.

Sure, Bodine has been giving more effort.  He should have looked better, as Dallas runs an even front, and he did not have a large man directly over him every snap.  However, when Dallas wanted to come up the middle, they did so with ease.

Yeah, that is a joke right there..

Don't put stock in PFF people.
