Let's say that excuse is valid for Monday.

It still hasn't happened often in the past outside of maybe 1 or 2 of the playoff games where they looked pretty rough.

EVERY QB in the NFL will get hit, pressured, and sacked. It's the way it is. Our line is pretty damn good, and they have been. Argue exactly where they're ranked all you want, but they're GOOD.

I'm not concerned with what happened Monday because we won't be seeing it on a regular basis throughout the year. It was preseason, c'mon, man! No one looked good out there on Monday, Andy included, but I will bet that Andy, o-line, WRs, and defense all will be just fine when it comes to week 1.

It's not an excuse, it's a fact that over the past decade the Bengals offensive line does not give the quarterback anymore than a three count to make reads with any consistency. On the other hand, this offensive line showed last year that they are an excellent run blocking line.
