Is Burfict blanketing Witten or something?

Tony hasn't looked his way at all.

I guess Jason Garrett wanted to remind everyone Austin was still on the roster.

Someone tell Anthony Munoz it's Miles Austin not Austin Miles

They beat Taylor Mays.

That is like beating Roy Williams.

Curb the enthusiasm.

I'm glad the first team finally put together some good drives but it still looks like we'er going to be a one dimensional offense.

Still very disappointed in this OL and in the man who assembled this monstrosity.

At some point you have to go all in on revamping this thing. Otherwise you're going to get the same clunky product year after year.
Yep.

The offense will never, ever be efficient with this OL.

Pretty much.

There's talent so it's going to shine through here and there in spite of the line, but it will also struggle because the run blocking sucks and other promising drives will be derailed due to a untimely sack.

I do like what I saw from Miles Austin, though. He looked really good in that half and he showed a burst that has been missing for quite some time. Hopefully it's a sign of things to come and not a preseason coincidence.

I understand the Bengals have a talented defense but an NFL line should not be beaten badly this regularly.

If we've ran the ball 10 times a Bengal defender has been in the backfield making contact with the runner on 7 of those runs.
You can't run an NFL offense when that is the case.

And for us, it is.

The line is bad, but they have scored 14 points.

Miles has looked quick today.
He could have a big year feasting on third CBs in the slot if Terrance Williams can capably man the outside allowing Austin to stay inside.

And if he could stay healthy of course.
