Marvin decided playing time and who's the starter. That's always been the case.

He was good in the final game.
Also, Westerman played more snaps (96) than Cedric Ogbuehi (54), Jake Fisher (45), and Andre Smith (26) this past season.
Bobby Hart had the most snaps among all our offensive players, and he was awful.
Alex Redmond had the 3rd most and was also awful.

He did play impressive.
In Westerman's 60 pass blocks, he only allowed 2 hurries.

It's not so much that people were "impressed" with Westerman.
It's moreso that people wanted to bench Redmond, an obviously bad player.

Hart and Redmond combined for 25 penalties (23 accepted).
Cincinnati was the ONLY team in 2018 to have two offensive players have double digit penalties.

Westerman may not be the answer to fix our offensive line issues. Fans were just tired of seeing Hart and Redmond hold this offense back.
