Pass blocking is about far more than allowing sacks.

Thirty minutes later...

...and please allow me to expand on this. Pass blocking is an art. It really is. More than just keeping a quarterback upright, good pass blocking forms a pocket and great pass blocking moves a pocket. Only the greatest offensive lines form a pocket, move a pocket, and expand a pocket. If you watch any New England game you’ll see this and if you’ve ever wondered why Tom Brady has so much time to go through his progressions and throw this is it.

Also, the Cincinnati offensive line can’t run block well either. I haven’t seen guards pull or anything like that all year. It’s just “push and hope.”

This isn’t about Andy Dalton. This is about fundamental football which has been missing in this town for far too long.
