And your claim that you could turn a 2nd round pick into the best LT in the league just shows how ignorant you are about the NFL.  Every year there are lots of first round picks that are complete flops.  Alexander has never had a top pick flop like most other O-line coaches in the league have. 

And blaming Alexander for the O-line problems of the 90's shows how little you know about the Bengals. From 1992 to 2002 the Bengals used a total of ONE pick in the first two rounds on an offensive lineman, and only 2 more in the third round. 

Obvious hyperbole.  And I'm the ignorant one?  Ppffftttttp !!!!!!!!  

Boling was considered one of the best guards in his draft.  Your incessant rambling does nothing to change that.

No one is blaming him.  I see people saying he's not that good.  Then a couple of you run in on some goddamned crusade like he's a 1st ballot HOFer.  If he's so great , he should be able to mask weaknesses and coach subpar players to at least be serviceable.  He didn't then, and he can't now. That's the point. He's Mikey's boy , and that's why he's still here....not some mystic coaching prowess that has somehow managed to keep him as an oline coach in midwestern America his entire career.  Spare me.......
