Yes, our OL sucks but the Bengals are showing that if you have a QB and NFL caliber play calling you can still somewhat overcome it. If they do what they should do and focus heavily on the OL this off-season they're gonna be a real problem next year. I do think their OL will ultimately be their Achilles heel this year.

Burrow is the ultra rare QB thats able to over-come 50 sacks and a weak OL. Those are QB are maybe 5 in the world, including him. Titans have a legit D&DL, talent all around, plus Bryd is maybe the best safety in the nfl.

everyone thinks we need to build this vaunted impenetrable line where the qb has 5 seconds to throw...that aint happining... nor realistic...

I know. Don't get me wrong, we need to get better on the OL but this isn't the 1990s anymore. You're not competing for Super Bowls with Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson level QBs simply by building an OL and a D. Not in today's NFL.

Neither can the O-line be an absolute sieve that doesn't allow anything to happen on offense. All that firepower and only three field goals isn't going to cut it.

    • Having trouble finding all these articles saying the Raiders withheld information. Here’s the latest from Crosby’s surgeon: ElAttrache told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning that Crosby was "doing very well in the early part of his rehab and recovery from surgery to treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee. He is certainly on track in his planned program." "We truly respect the work of the Ravens' staff with Maxx regarding the contract physical exam. We also understand the challenge the staff faces when tasked to provide a future risk assessment based on an evaluation early in the recovery process," ElAttrache said. "This is especially challenging when dealing with an elite player like Maxx considering the level of commitment necessary for a team to obtain him. The timing of this assessment is unfortunate because the apparent risk will lessen as his recovery progresses and his return to performance over the next few months becomes clear."     So the Ravens excuse is the future risk assessment based on the physical, not that the Raiders withheld information. They found an excuse to save face publicly. They had the right to cancel the trade for no reason at all, but they’re trying to save face with the most acceptable reasoning they can find. I’ve heard and seen the Ravens getting dragged everywhere for this. You know what would be an easy way to put a stop to that if you’re the Ravens and the Raiders were actually the shady ones withholding information? Just come out and say that you were not given all the medical information. But they aren’t saying that. I guess they’re just taking the bullet for the Raiders just because?    Speculation indeed.
    • Two first round picks for a guy with very questionable knees who will be 29 this summer. Yes it is safe to say the Ravens got cold feet.
    • The salary cap is the reason we got Phillips and Lloyd
