Kazkal Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 GOOD IDEAThe Cincinnati Bengals' revamping their defensive line. Thanks in large part to the influence of new defensive coordinator Chuck Bresnahan, the Bengals have made a series of promising moves up front. The addition of former Miami Dolphins defensive tackle Bryan Robinson should help shore up a porous run defense because of his skills and because it allows John Thornton to move from left to right tackle, where he should face less double-team blocking. Other key changes are having a larger Robert Geathers, who added 10 pounds to the 273-pound frame he had in 2004, at right end and moving Justin Smith from right to left end, where he can combine his run-stopping talents with those of Robinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaxonFord87 Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 I posted this a few days ago, but oh well it is still interesting to hear the bengals getting some more credit for their work. Can't wait to see the new defense in action! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShulaSteakhouse Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 I don't understand how this is a "revamped" defense? They replaced two people, and flip-flopped two others upfront.Pollack is a rookie and hasn't proven anything yet on this level also. It's not as if he was a top 15 pick either, and is also playing an entirely new position.Just tend to be more realistic than whatever the hell NFL.com was thinking.
