Cincinnati averages 53.1 rush YPG and allows 189.0 rush YPG this season. The 135.9 rush YPG differential is the worst by any team in a season since the 1950 Baltimore Colts (-140.9).
It's so bad I have to question, is it really just that the Oline is that bad ? I mean I get it our starters are marginal at best. But don't other factors have to be contributing to the awfulness ?
Bad blocking technique ?
Are we tipping our run plays somehow ?
Are we to predictable ?
Do we need a fullback ?
Like Pistons has said we've fielded basically the same Oline as last season a lot of the time. It just seems to me there's more going on here than just how bad the players are.
combo of bad OL.... BAD Play calls and teams being able to stack the box cause we have no WRs
