Also the shear size of Westerman is mind blowing, the guy is HUGE......
Be interested to see what the left side of the line graded out at today......
G ALEX REDMOND, 84.2 OVERALL GRADE - GOOD
In the most extended action of Redmond’s young career, the second-year guard impressed. He rotated in on 48 snaps and didn’t allow a single pressure. Redmond was also the highest-graded run blocker on the Bengals’ offensive line on the day.
LT CLINT BOLING, 39.9 OVERALL GRADE - NOT GOOD
Boling is not the solution at left tackle for the Bengals anytime soon. He allowed a sack, a hit, and two pressures on the day along with a handful of other losses in pass protection.
This is what i wanted to see, the young guys get a shot. As i am sure others have said have to give Boling a pass for his
first start at LT, he really helped out Redmond according to his own words. This is just another reason Marv and PA have
to go, they always wait to long too play the young, more talented players it seems. I am sure there are exceptions but..
It is not like these coaches have not seen these guys in practice the last few years. Both Redmond and Westerman have
looked pretty impressive everytime i have watched them unlike Hopkins who they started over these guys to the detriment
of the team once again.
BTW, i think you are talking about Redmond looking huge, he has like 30 pounds on the smaller Westerman.
