Whitworth was coming off back-to-back Pro Bowls and he was 1 year removed from 1st Team All-Pro (and 2nd Team All-Pro the year before that).

The LT heir was Ogbuehi who was coming off 677 nauseating-to-watch snaps on offense in his 2nd year. 

Everyone (besides apparently the Bengals FO) knew it was a terrible idea to replace an All-Pro still performing at an extremely high level with Ogbuehi. That's not hindsight, that is foresight and common sense.

Cute that you're telling me to stop it .

Sorry, but you have to play Devil's Advocate in this situation (which, frankly, I don't know if you EVER have, in regards to this team).

I'm still contending that is PA was not a coach on this team, Andrew Whitworth would still be our LT.

But at the time, it was not a bad move: in hindsight, it absolutely was.
