Center takes not just a specialized physical skill set, but a certain leadership quality to be the commander of the blocking calls. Jackson didn't get benched at Guard for getting physically blown up, it was missing calls and being out of position, and that may not have been all of his fault. There was a good deal of miscommunication on the OL that season, as we had a liability at Center, heck even Reilly Reiff ended up out of position on several occasions.
There has been so much OL change over the last four years. I believe this will be the first time in several years that it looks like the Bengals will be starting the same 3 IOL.
