With the addition of Frank Pollack hopefully that will stabilize the run game like he did with thr Bengals in 2018 with a very similar caliber offensive line.
I agree though you don't need a top 5 offensive line to be a great offense you can survive with a middle of the road pack. The Bengals have also been missing playmakers on Offense which you see on great teams. Hopefully Ja'Marr Chase and 2nd year Tee Higgins might just what the doctor ordered.
It's very difficult to evaluate rushing stats when a broken down Giovanni Bernard was our feature back much of the year. That limits your game plan as much or more than the blocking. Both Perrine and Williams were doing better when they started getting some opportunities late in the year.
