If Reader is healthy then DT will be by far the most improved position on the team. Even though they usually don't put up big sack numbers good DTs make it much easier for edge rushers to get sacks.
They also plug the middle and don't allow OL to pull easily and get to the 2md level on our Lb's and DB's.
I agree, our DL sucked in in 2020 and was probably worse than our OL. Sadly, to win we need to win the trenches, long way to go on both sides to make that happen.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
