The difference Pollack will make

He’s not going to turn guys like Spain and XSF into Pro Bowlers, but I think some are forgetting just how good of a coach he is (especially compared to what we had the last couple years). Saw this thread by Joe Goodberry and there’s some interesting numbers.

Where Pollack was ranked when he was here in Cincinnati is particularly impressive considering what he was working with that year.



And now he’s obviously going to have guys like Jonah and Reiff.

I am in no way shape or form advocating putting all our hopes on just him and not adding any more pieces to the OL. I want at 1-2 from this draft. But I feel so much better going into this season with an actual NFL caliber OL coach (and run game coordinator).

Ive stated I believe Pollack is not a bad coach but still concerning in his most recent coaching position how bad the Jets lined performed under his coaching for two years and still can;t get out of my head the start of a downward spiral that started with Price's rookie year had which was under Pollack.  Im going to keep an open mind because he has had some success in his career but im not ready to just anoint him a great position coach until I see real results with the Bengals.
