If Zac Taylor wants to run any variation of the Rams' playbook, he'll need a much better -- and smarter -- offensive line.

Yep. The Rams have a Top 5 line. The Bengals have a bottom 5 line.

People bash Cleveland for signing Zeitler, but they have a Top 5-10 offensive line. That's going to help them win.
