The Rams have one of the best defensive fronts in the game, and that defensive front won them a Super Bowl as they dominated Cincinnati's offensive line. The fact that Cincinnati still made the Super Bowl doesn't give Pollack credit for anything, it is an example that there is an exception to the rule.

Instead of "If you have a bad offensive line, you will not have success" the rule should be "If you have a bad offensive line, you are unlikely to have success". The Bengals beat the odds and got there despite poor pass protection and an abysmal running game. 

The running game wasn’t abysmal though. Mixon went to his 1st Pro Bowl last season, and he averaged 4.8 yards per carry in the Super Bowl. Honestly, Taylor should have kept feeding Mixon more. We probably would have won.
