If I wasn't a Mod here I'd put him on ignore myself. His troll mode shtick is getting old.

WRONG? The Bengals started out 1 -2 last year. They won only 6 games. They will win the same amount of games this year. The offensive line has nothing to do with this shit team at all. They stunk last year, they stink this year, but maybe less.

Offensivelinemen are a dime-a-dozen. 

Just keep watching and getting your ass kicked.

Hahaha. 11 wins. Blowhard. You said it, not me. Just like Hue Jackson was already going to be fired. You aren't worming your way out of this one pal.

Under the Ghoolie Theory of Quarterback Dynamics,  no QB can ever get any better than he is in his first game as a rookie.  Ergo....you must be correct....a QB who is sacked 4 times will always be sacked 4 times in every game the rest of his career.

When the problem is protection, then a QB may very well be sacked less. The Browns have the best OL in the NFL right now, and Kizer got his dumb ass sacked 7 times. The Ravens will probably sack him 10 times, 50/50 they take the dumb sumbitch out for the season. Surely you know that Kizer has an RG3 lifeline this year? He holds on to the fucking ball too long. No changing that. His synapses pass through his concrete brain. 10 sacks is not unrealistic.

Offensive linemen are a dime-a-dozen. 

Just keep watching and getting your ass kicked.

Dude let it go...he's not going to admit hes wrong.  The attention whore can't possibly do that.  Leave him be to spew his nonsense.  The sooner everyone ignores him, the better off the board will be.

The wife has told me the same thing Mark. This particular Ghoolie rant deserves all the crap I can dish out- since it was directed at me in the first place. I'm taking it personal- not just because he's so full of it regarding the importance of OL,  but on top of that, he pretends he knows more than I do regarding the freaking Bungles -that I get exposed to on a daily basis 50 miles away from Cincitucky.  I won't quote him- to save Tour and Ag seeing him.... BUT.... how many times have I told the Doofus the chain is only as strong as its weakest link? I suppose Eli Manning forgot how to play football against the Cowboys....   per NFL.com

"It was the seventh straight game, dating back to last season, in which the Giants have scored fewer than 20 points. Eli Manning was sacked three times for a total loss of 22 yards (according to NFL Research, the Giants are 1-11 since 2014 when they give up three or more sacks), and the team gained less than 3 yards per rush. (and that having a stellar WR in OBJ- hoorta)

Analytics site Pro Football Focus torched the team's tackles, Bobby Hart and Ereck Flowers, while giving average grades to their (far better) interior pieces, Weston Richburg, Justin Pugh and John Jerry."

Yup, when I'm dead wrong- I just ignore the proof I'm wrong. You are SO full of shit. You started the damn thread, you pompous asshole. So how's your crap taste when it gets shoved back in your face? Dime a dozen, my ass. And that's according to every GM and scout in the NFL on top of it. Repeat after me, a great OL can make a poor QB look good. A lousy OL can make a great QB look bad. A great defense can win games, if not Super Bowls if their offense stinks. 

You said 11-5 Trollie- because of their great skill players. How fast you forget the crap you post. Alzheimer's setting in? You can send me a bottle of Hennessey now. Send me another one when Joe Thomas gets his name called for Canton.

I am not even reading your horseshit.

The Bengals had a great OL last year? Good, they only won 6 games - They stunk.

The Bengals OL now stinks? They will still win 6 games, most likely 2 against the Browns.

Nothing to see here. Offensive Linemen are a dime-a-dozen.

YAWN.

Yeah, I know you've been wrong so much- it must get boring.  Per NFL.com "Mix Dalton's poor play with a remade offensive line that struggled to block in both run and pass, and a muddled backfield rotation, and you get a limp offense." So now you gonna tell me that substandard bunch of fatasses "just need time to gel" as an excuse wrongo dongo?

After zero touchdowns and nine points in two games, this is just beautiful. 

LOL, it's got to be the offensive coordinator's fault- not that they let Whitworth and Zeitler walk- the Bungles just fired Zampese.

That totally makes sense if you think about it. Just mull it over a few, the ghoolie genius eventually makes its way through if you add collinear infinite multidimensional theory. 

Follow.....theres infinite deshaun watsons on infinite earths. Cut to the chase, somewhere...in some dimension....nigga gettin sacked. We can throw away the dimensions where the texans are winning the superbowl with watson as qb as "inconsequential outliers".....per the ghoolie inconvenience theorem.

So now we can add all the diminsions together where watson sucks as proof he sucks and will always suck here on this earth. It rather simple i dont know why so many of u struggle with it.

Not only that, the Butterfingers Bungles dropped a couple room service interceptions, one of which would have been a certain TD.

Ah, those Bunglin' Bungles. Getting beat at home by a rookie QB making his first start, missing 1\2 his offensive players. The awesomeness of those Stripers!!! But of course Ghoolie knows you can't win (Texans) with defense. NOT!!!

@ghoolie said:

OK Larry, unless I am mistaken, this should be a great year for us to once again reprise the are OL fatasses a dime-a-dozen, or are they hard-to-come-by athletes who determine if a QB is successful or not?

FIRST

If I understand you correctly, your feelings are that with the loss of veteran Linemen, the Bengals offense, especially Andy Dalton is going to suffer, and be far less effective. I honestly don't follow OL at all. I seriously have ADD on this topic based on my knowledge that the individual players are all interchangeable.

Fun thing to watch #1 - I believe the Bengals will have a more explosive offense in 2017 than they did in 2016, and may be unstoppable. They added pizazz at RB and WR, which are far, far more important than some 300 pound, clumsy fatasses.

However.........if OL men are as important as you say, then the Bengals O should struggle.

SECONDLY

According to most here the Browns have assembled a great OL, and by your philosophy should translate into a remarkably better offense. This end of it is a little harder to quantify because we probably will have a better starter in Ass-Oiler than we did with RG3 and Kessler. Kizer potentially coming in has a tremendous upside, so the Browns OL performance may have very little to do with an improved offense by way of a better QB.

This is the hard thing about football analyses. There are too man variables sometime to really get a cause-and-effect picture. I think in Cincy though, you are out on a limb. They lost integral OL, and by your measure the offense is going to struggle. I don't believe they will miss the fatasses, and I think their O will be improved.

Let's see who is right.

Whelp, the evidence seems to be rolling in.

Cincinnasty may be taking the place of the J-e-t-s as the weekly stooge in my survivor pool, at least during bye weeks.

And evidently Watson is a Bust.

I counted 4 sacks when I turned it off. They must have counted 1 as a run.

I had to turn that shit show off.

I mean, the commentators were trying to build up a 3 -3 game like its being played at the north pole. Sure seemed like Watson was sacked more than 3 times.

Yeah both teams played like shit. Seems like Ghoolie is already wrong. Bengals look like shit. They are getting well deserved boos.

@ghoolie said:

They don't know as much as I do. That is the point. THe Bengals OL was not an issue. They will make a run for the division title. 11- 5

Lololol!!! Had to peruse your ranting earlier. They'll need to go 11-3 to make that prediction come true. Make that 11-2 after they get beat in Green Bay a week from Sunday. I gave you an over\under of 10.5 wins Zaya vs Hennessy VSOP still interested? Easier to see 10 losses than 10 wins.

So now you just yawn when you're wrong? Dalton is up shit creek if Green gets hurt. & How 'bout that Ross (he of 4.2 speed) fumbling the ball to Javedon Clowney? Apparently sat the rest of the game out with a bruised ego. Too funny. JJ Watt was beating their fatass Oju- boo-boo like a drum.

Yes Oline is important, first team since 1939 Eagles to not score a TD in their first 2 games of the season.

Not sure I know, nor care what point it is that you are trying to make.

My simple point is that sometimes the other 21 guys on the field have far more to do with winning and losing than does the QB.

That day....the Steelers HOF caliber QB had a shitty day....and the now scorned/joke jock QB for the Jets had a very fine day.....yet, the Steelers won....because their other 21 guys outplayed the Jets other 21 guys.

Jets had the better overall OL? Fine. They did a good enough job to allow Sanchez to have a good game.

But clearly SOME other aspect of the Steelers allowed them to win...other than the play of their QB that day.

That's all.
