Early kudos to the o-line

And two, one of my only gripes (likely the only currently) about Lazor is that he seems to go away from the run quite easily. He leans more pass heavy, and it show. Andy is on pace to have 616 attempts, and currently has the 9th most attempts.

The second point is more plausible than the first. The Bengals have rushed 84 times in 4 games. In the first 2 games (which Mixon played), they rushed 42 times, which is exactly the same as the latter 2 games.

I’d be interested to know if the run game would get worse or better if they ran more during games. From what I’ve seen from the OL thus far, I’d guess worse.
