There is certainly improvement and it is nice to see some fire and passion from the team but there is still a lack of real talent on the O-line and in important moments (4th and less then 1) and the last drive, the O-line was exposed.
Joe Mixon missed most of the second half plus the Bengals didn't have arguably their best o-lineman in Glenn... I think once Glenn is back in mix we can hope to see improvements in the run game.
