Nice Article on the O-Line - 3wt - 09-24-2015

Granted this is written by Bengals staff pushing a feel good theme, but the O-line has been looking good so far - and uncharacteristically good up the middle.   When Andy has a solid pocket he's a quality QB.   He's been very clean back there for two weeks.

I've been encouraged by both Boling and Bodine's play so far.   I was not expecting anything but a disaster from Bodine after what we saw in camp.  But he's been playing good ball, and is a better player than the last time we went into Baltimore.

I go back and forth about Alexander, but the truth is I really don't know squat about the guy.  But his line has been performing well the last several years and appears to have made a significant step up this year.

Hopefully this is not premature, but he appears to have been right about Bodine.   I sure hope he was right about Ogbuehi and Fisher as well.   If so we have a lot of good things to look forward to.

Individually and as a unit, these guys have stepped up.  The offense only goes as far as these guys can take them.  They have an attitude about them.  Staff and players deserve lot of credit.
