Bengals Front 4

[corpjet]

No doubt this has been the bright spot thus far this season!

Trey Hendrickson has played well (despite missing the tackle on Fields late in the 4th qtr), Larry Ogunjobi has lived in the offensive backfield, Hill has done more in 2 games that Price did in 4 years, Reader is finally healthy, Sample is going to be good (finally getting something out of a late rd pick) and Sam Hubbard is the high character team leader we need on defense.

Props to them through the first 2 games, a pleasant surprise from Sweet Lous defense the first 2 years.

We will need them to continue at this pace if we have any hopes for a successful season.

Everyone is making plays. Need to see more out of Hubbard though

Only concern is the fragile psychie in Cinci. If the offense doesn’t figure things out quickly does this D start to falter?

Hubbard is doing his job and keeping contain and stopping the run. Plus, he met Hendrickson at the QB yesterday.

Did everyone else get as much joy as I did watching Reader get that sack?

if they keep getting put in bad spots due to offensive mistakes...  They will look worse than they are.

Well, one of the things they have going for them is they are pretty deep, and if they get tired the next men up are no slouches.

Love this front 4. Imagine how stout we would've been with Ossai.

our best defensive years were when we had a solid rotation on DL

Agree it all starts in the trenches on both sides of the ball (hear that O-Line!)
