Paul Brown would be horrified.
The Bengals are going nowhere fast if the line play on both sides of the ball doesn't improve. On offense the line is collapsing faster than a geriatric member whose Viagra just wore off and run blocking is abysmal. The defensive line couldn't touch Kirk Cousins more than once in 56 attempts -- and he's as mobile as a fire hydrant. The defensive line can't stop running backs either which puts pressure on the Cincinnati linebackers whose 40 yard dash can be timed with a sundial.

Keep that trench talk on the d line this week. The o line did alright.

And the same thing with our O against their D. Maybe that's why we tied

Poor strength and conditioning.
A fleshy Burfict hurt his knee (was it the micro fracture knee? I don't know). I hope yet another miss on an injury won't have lasting consequences. Why can't the strength and conditioning staff have Burfict return in great shape? Instead he is too heavy and risking his playing health and career.
Our offensive line has the bodies of college players except for Whitworth.

We "stink" in the trenches because we've got a bunch of turds on our team
