The Bengals are the worst team in the league at short yardage runs last I checked (before Cleveland game).Last season Gio and Mixon (the top two backs per attempts) averaged 3.5 yards a carry. Yeah the rush yards per attempt were better overall but that had to do with QB runs and Wr sweeps.
I’ll put it this way, if it makes you feel better. The line sucks. If you want to believe they are better, then be my guest, but the line sucks.
This season the top two backs Mixon and Perine are averaging 4.3 yards a carry. That's a significant improvement.
As far as sacks and Hits goes a lot of that can be attributed too Joe holding onto the ball too long and poor protection by RBs and TEs.
Let's put it this way the Offensive line has improved tremendously since last season but they still have a long ways to go to be good.

I think all of the hots have taken a toll on Joe... Hence all the INTs.. Couple I'm the D being complete useless and you have a QB playing hero ball because he has too... This team is still pretty far away from contending. They got exposed bad these past 2 games...Yes let's ignore the numbers and go with Tony's opinion because he knows all.
