Well they've barely started to get wider recognition so i really don't think i would call them over-rated.
I think its a group thats benefitted from playing together and - touch wood- we've been lucky that its pretty much been those 5 guys the whole way so far so there's been no major blown assignments, miscommunications,etc
To my untrained eye the pass protection has been great (Dalton quick release or otherwise).
I think Whit and Boling are top notch and deserve Pro Bowl recognition.
Bodine is probably the weakest link - though not certainly not a Ghiacuic type liability
Andre on the edge against smaller speed rushers makes me slightly nervous but overall one of the better RT's about I would say
Zeitler is steady...really thought he would kick on this year but i think Boling is better at this point
re: running game I think someone made a good point re: Gio .vs. Hill. If Hill is on the field on a certain down and distance then obivously they're keying on the run. With Gio in there it may be as likely a pass so when he does run it he's potentially got more space to work with. Also the D personnel may have shifted more to pass defense when Gio is in
