This is the kind of thing that gets me excited this year

But the kind of involvement of Jim McNally, former Bengal stud offensive linemen with our current O-Line coach represents, in my mind, a significant culture change.

It's not that McNally hasn't been a consultant before, or that linemen (including Willie) haven't made visits.   But now they seem to be invited into the process, allowed to express their opinions and not have them swept under the rug.

And as for McNally, he's a full on part of the coaching staff through training camp: hands on and openly revered by Pollack.  And the players are eating it up.

Combine that with Pollack's intensity and the addition of Glen and Price, and I am starting to feel some real optimism.

Read and enjoy! :andy:

My opinion is that former great Bengal linemen were kept away because of PA's massive ego. 

I like everything I've heard about Frank Pollack and from Frank Pollack.
