Where did you see 67 Volson?

Presumed it was Volson at LG there.

Could be.  Can't get a clear look at his number, side view around :31

and I don't see 67 milling around anywhere.

I had not heard he was in.

It'd be interesting to see how he fares outside of the patented wide zone scheme.

Frank Pollack's background was the wide zone scheme, and that's what the Bengals started out running when he arrived. But midway through the 22-23 season the Bengals sort of evolved gradually into a downhill gap scheme that seemed like a better fit for linemen who were huge but not particularly quick. So Carman already has some experience in both scheme styles. The Bengals OL has only gotten bigger with the additions of Trent Brown and Mims, so it seems likely they won't be going back to the wide zone style anytime soon.

Some article was just talking about how that's what he likes to run.  You sure they've given up on it?

 

All I know is that these high-priced free agent OL arrive with great fanfare only to have the worst seasons of their careers.  If it was one guy I could write it off but when it happens so consistently it has to be a function of coaching & scheme.  Something they're doing is negating their natural ability.  It's a problem that's only being compounded by the team's refusal to confront it.  They're talking about OBJr as this great player and leader of the OL after giving up more QB pressure than any other LT last season. 

 

There's a big disconnect between what they're saying and the results on the field.  If it's not on the OL coach who is ultimately responsible?

 

Where the buck stops is kind of a recurring question with this franchise.
