Jake Fisher with some talkies

First step is back not direct down the line. Doesn't give himself the edge to usurp the block from Hopkins. Gotta keep working to get his same foot to the defenders same shoulder.


Does a good job getting out on the screen but the DBs run wide and Boyd gets both doesn't recognize and move up field.


Solid wash down block but again you want to see him keep working around and get that seal block.


Hands shoot wide and open the chest. Gets lucky he's got the hand strength to hang on just long enough. Not a play you can expect to replicate.


This run starts incredibly well. But he doesn't keep his leverage and the DL disengages.


First step is a false step (basic put up put down) and gets no depth or angle on the DL. But Fisher remains calm and works back into a good position staying square.


Great rep from Fisher here. Sets, gets his hands ready and delivers an upward blow. Begins to reset his hands and win the rep.


Fisher washes the DL wide here. Fisher keeps his hand on the inside rush until Hopkins gets back over then takes the edge.


Very slight difference in how the two OTs approach this. Ced slightly turns his hips and the DE attacks. Fisher keeps his hips closed and Spence has to run way behind the play. It doesn't impact on this play, but it sets the tone for future issues.


This time he gets same foot same shoulder and is able to seal the DL off and if needed, the cut back would be there if he sticks a little harder to it.


This is a problem he had last year but it's the first time it shows up in this game: Weight shifts to his back leg. And that allows the DE to shove him and get back inside.


Same play, you can see how he puts the weight outside and the DE feels it and attacks inside.


Great twist pick up here by Fisher and Hopkins. Feel it and call it.


Great rep. Watch how his hands are inside and pushing up. Bows his back and stops the rush.


In this game you see that Fisher has been able to cut down on his technique issues from last year.
Kept his weight on the inside much better than any point in time last year, only having it be an issue once.
He's showing marked improvement with hand placement in the pass game and being able to reset his hands.

The lack of tenacity in the run game is somewhat frustrating as he showed more of it in college and Im not sure where it went.

Overall, this is a more optimistic performance for me than Ced's game but we aren't out of the woods yet.
You need to keep seeing him work on eliminating the occasional slopfest rep. Every so often isn't a killer, it just happens and while it's an improvement, in a real game these lapses will be brutal and could stall big drives.

TY for the detailed look and analysis. I heard our OL was abused by our defense the past 2 days which is great to hear defense stepping up pressure, but scares the heck out of me that our entire OL needs major work, so much so it will derail our season. I will remain optimistic, but worried.

I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
