Interesting that you chose that specific stat.
Many people consider runs over 10 yards to be credited more to RBs than O-linemen.
Here are the Fooballoutsiders O-line rankings (based on "adjusted line yards") for the Bengals.
left outside ....30th
left tackle.......11th
middle............6th
right tackle.....11th
Right outside..28th
But those numbers take on a whole new meaning when you realize that a majority of all NFL runs (56%) are in the "middle" category.
Overall Footballoutsiders ranked our o-line right in the middle of the pack in run blocking. They were 14th in Adjusted Line Yards, 15th in Stuffs, and 19th in Power Situations.
