On offense, it's the OL that still needs overhauling. Broken record there.
On defense, it's the LBers, not the DL. LBers just don't move well and miss too many tackles. Secondary players Shawn Williams, Jessie Bates and Dre Kirkpatrick are the #1, 2 and 3 tacklers on the team followed by Sam Hubbard. http://www.nfl.com/teams/statistics?team=CIN
The DL job is to keep blockers off of the LB's, no doubt our LB play is number one issue, but DL does not play the run well either. We have guys who can rush the passer on DL, but we lack guys that can hold the LOS to stop the run in my opinion.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
