It’s true OL play is only as good as it’s weakest link, and right now Hopkins and everyone we’re throwing out at RG are dragging down the overall unit, but it’s silly to suggest the other guys haven’t played well. The left side in particular, has been very good this year.
There’s way too much generalizing with that kind of mentality. I’m more interested in focusing on exactly what needs to be addressed (C & RG), not just continually screaming “the entire OL sucks!”
believe if we see a post saying "the OL sucks" its more a statement on the unit's output than a damnation of every player in that unit. and i can't really recall the last time i saw a post stating "the entire OL sucks." possible if someone posted that i've mentally overlooked it because of hyperbole. the bengals have a few issues to address at OL, not every position. if hopkins and carman could get healthy, which i have doubts about this season, it could stablize the o-line more. the fact the bengals front office refused to trade for a OG/C will probably continue to feel like a kick in the teeth for the rest of this season though.
