Guess the term "impact" is relative.
* If Hendrickson or Hubbard can step off the field and the guy coming in to replace them has no drop off in caliber of play then is that not an impact?
* If a defense has to drop into a dime defense and every DB running out on the field is of starting caliber is that not an impact?
* If we lose a player to injury and the guy coming off of the bench is of starting caliber is that not an impact?
I believe as fans we tend to gripe about things such as draft selections for depth but then we tend to gripe as well when the next man up is not as talented as the guy he came in to replace. The Bengals have entered rarified space for their fans and it seems many are struggling with the affects of success.
