Andy Dalton is 17th in the NFL in sacks
Only 7 QB have more attempts and fewer sacks than Andy
Joe Mixon is #6 in the NFL in YPG
Only 1 RB (Gurley) has more attempts per game and a higher YPC than Mixon
All this with 4 new starters on the oline, a new Oline coach, and our #1 C out for the majority of the season.
We "need" other things than replacing 3 members of this oline.
Dalton is that low on sacks because of his quick release and our offensive scheme is built around the weak OL. We aren't throwing the ball down the field nearly as much as past years because of it.
Mixon has that YPA because hes a really good RB. There were a lot of times he should have been tackled for a loss because of the line but broke out a nice run.
If we got an average OL the offense would be a ton better.
