Does Quinton Spain fit the blocking scheme?

In 2020 they are trying to run more flex a mix between tight, inside, and mid zone and inside power ala Saints.

Quinton Spain has run inside and outside zone schemes for the Titans and Power-Man for the Bills so he has a variety of experience doing a little bit of everything. That is also Run blocking. In pass pro they run alot more Man (B.O.B) but mix in zone with extra defenders at the line.

Spains biggest issue in pass pro right now is he came in mid-season, has played 3 different positions, and has played next to different guys almost every week building zero chemistry. There has been so much rotation on the offensive line.

There was a shift the second half of the season last year where they switched to a gap man scheme and it worked quite well.

It doesn't seem that the Bengals are sticking with what made them successful the second half of last season.
I don't really understand the need to try to shift to something else given they seemed to find a winning formula last year...unless they felt that gap blocking scheme wouldn't fit well with what they wanted to do on offense with Burrow now as the QB?
