Watch film on Russell Bodine at North Carolina. He was a mauler.
Watch film on Cedric Ogbuehi at Texas A&M. He was wicked good.
Watch film on Jake Fisher at Oregon. He was one of the best.
Watch film on Andre Smith at Alabama. He might have been the best college left tackle I've seen in the past decade.
These fine players came to Cincinnati and now their techniques are ruined. They are empty shells of their old selves. It's visible, palpable, and everyone can see it except Paul Alexander. The Piano Man has ruined the techniques of America's best linemen and Andy Dalton will someday pay the price for his ineptitude just like Carson Palmer did.
Get a new offensive line coach, one who is not enamored with the obsolete zone blocking techniques of the 1990s.
PA definately needs to go and is a big part of the problem. The REAL problem comes from the top down but we can only
solve what can be solved and that is to move on from Marv, PA and maybe all the coaches and start fresh after the season.
Hire a new HC and let him pick his own staff and do as he seems fit.
