I thought the same thing.  If the Bengals can get Burkhead involved this year after seeing what he could do as a receiver, I think they could be at or very close to the #1 backfield in all of football.  Remember, the defenses that the Eagles saw twice a season:  Cowboys, Redskins, Giants.  Bengals face Browns, steelers, and Ravens.  It seems on the surface that the Eagles might be falling in to the Bengals trap of making the playoffs but being a one-and-done.  They need a better oline if they are going to be able to move the ball against playoff-caliber defenses. 

That is why I am so happy with the depth at the offensive line this season.  It won't be "Smith is out, there goes the run game" any longer.
