(For Comparison: the Bengals since 2000 are at 11 losing seasons out of 18, 0 SB wins, 0 SB appearances, 4 division titles, and 0 playoff wins.)


I'll have some of that sucking, please.

I guess I wasn't going as far back as 2000, but recently they had a really good tackle and guard and hadn't done much as far as playoff wins....at least that was how I remembered it...even with two of the best in the league on their offensive line.  Since 2010, they averaged roughly 7.5 wins per year, until they had their huge season last year (with a change of coaching staff).  

It just seemed like they had a lot of talent but couldn't do much with it until last year.  

FWIW, I think having a really good center is a key to all of this.  Look at what Mack did for Atlanta, and how Seattle was when they had one....ditto Dallas's collapse without Frederick.

That is why I am so high on Billy Price.  I think he is going to be a great, long-term fixture in the middle of our line.
