I think the o-line is a little overrated, but they're still very good. I have no idea what's going on with my boy Hill, but the kid proved he has skills last year. Maybe they're too predictable when he's in there?

I agree that Dalton's quick release may pad the o-line's stats, but they're still one of the best groups in the league. They pass the eye test in every way. The only area where I feel that they could improve as a whole is with their penalties.

That was a very good D line and overall defense the Bills had and the Oline was able to shut them down today, which we knew was coming because of the shitty plays they gave up against the 'Hawks. The way they played today proves their moxy. They're capable of keeping Andy clean every game.
Hill isn't running with the same vision he had last year, I don't know why. But Gio has been excellent and even Jeremy too, in the redzone. Together, they're a perfect match. The run game may not be taking the NFL by storm, but it's keeping defenses honest for the most part and even better in the redzone. All in all, this Oline is right up there with the best in the league. It all starts with Big Whit, so finally he's getting the recognition he deserves.

They had a different blocking scheme (more FB and strong sets) rather than running out of the shotgun. They both excel at different things, but are both very good players.Well stated. I have scarcely little to add.
Being a Bengals fan is like being in love with a narcissist. It's a brutal, emotionally abusive relationship but I never leave and just keep making excuses for them.
