It's weird that the Bengals watched that game and thought "Well, he's played terrible at RT all season so let's give him a trial run at LT for one game since this might be our future" and felt comfortable moving on from Whit. Zeitler, I can understand not resigning but they definitely could've had Whit back. Marvin even said he thought Whit was on his way to coming back here. So that was completely on Mike Brown and whatever BS Paul Alexander fed him about Ogbuehi being able to handle that spot.
Then again, Ogbuehi and Fisher falling flat on their face last year finally got PA outta here so maybe it works out, after all, speaking long term. Fisher has slowly gotten better throughout the preseason, maybe he takes RT after all. I personally hope Ogbuehi is cut on Saturday.
I didn't get to watch all of his snaps closely, but I thought Og did a good job in the run game. He was getting out on the 2nd level better than he ever has and was finishing his blocks, which he's never done.
Trouble is that he still walked right into Dalton. I just don't think after 3 years he'll ever be able to develop the core strength to handle the bull rush.
