That being said I still agree that the Rams had a much better O-line than the Bengals.  Footballoutsiders uses actual objective stats in their formulas and they rank the Bengals run blocking 22nd overall but 7th best in power running situations.  And they rank the Bengals pass protection 19th.  

Better than the PFF rankings, but not really worth fighting over because 22nd and 19th are still not close to as good as the Rams.

FootballOutsider's ranking seems more realistic.  At least their data seems to jive more with their rankings.

On film, there is no question the Rams OL outperformed ours.  However, that is due to a combination of players, coaching, and scheme.  Pistons seems to believe it's based almost solely on player talent and PFF is a measure of player talent, neither of which is the case.
