Of course, Burrow would have to stay healthy and you couldn't have an entirely second string offensive line, but in general with the normal season of an injury here and there if Ross and Green are healthy all season, I think Boyd, Higgins, Tate, Sample, Uzo, the RBs will all eat VERY WELL underneath and if anyone pulls doubles away from Green or a safety over the top against Ross, they will do so at their peril.
Skeptics will say they will never both be healthy. But like you said about it being darkest before the dawn, I think they both have had their share of bad luck (as has the entire fricking franchise) and are due for a season where things go their way.
The first 4 games of 2018 had both Ross and Green and they were 5-1 before Ross missed a few games and the defense just fell apart.
True that my friend.
Things just need to align and we Bengal fans all hope they have.
I have battled people for many years defending John Ross and there were not many beside me, but the point is about the
potential of a player and I sure didn't think that Ross would initially just light up the world as a young player.
This guy has traits you cannot teach.
