Except for seemingly every team that went OL this year in the draft that's not the Bengals. That's the brutal part of it. Lol
I know that's not true and it's hyperbole, but shit.... Sewell, Slater, Vera-Tucker, Darrisaw, Dickerson, Cosmi, Humphrey all playing well or very well in their rookie year from the 1st and 2nd round. The list of 1st and 2nd round guys not playing well is only 1 longer than the list that are. That's pretty crazy for them all being rookies.
All that said, Chase is still tearing it up and putting the offense on his back for a large part of the season, but still doesn't make me watch and wistfully sigh when I see Humphries absolutely blanking the Bengals DTs and leading the Chiefs to run for 6.7 YPC.
