Cincinnati's OL did improve towards the middle of the season but injuries hit at the worst time. Now, we have both of our tackles coming off of knee surgery.
We know that the OL struggled early. Likely their lack of experience together. Volson as a rookie had some tough matchups. As the year progressed Jonah & Collins struggled. The inside OL really improved. If Collins plays as expected we are pretty good. Jonah was effected by injuries. Geez we went on a 10 game win streak. We neutered the KC DL the first go round. I’m not maintaining that it’s close to acceptable but some think we are going to get 3 new OL to go with Cappa and Karras. Heck TheLeonardLeap was railing on Karras.
They aren’t spending on the OL like they did last year. I’d expect the first or second pick and less likely a FA. They aren’t going to let anything inhibit getting Tee. They want to extend him. Joe wants him period. They aren’t spending money on new free agents requiring large dollars.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
