## Resource

The Bengals’ offensive line, despite returning all five starters for continuity, still ranks near the bottom of the league—28th—according to analyst Warren Sharp, citing poor pass protection and lackluster run blocking. Yet, the team argues that keeping the same core unit avoids rookie learning curves and shows signs of improvement, especially as rookies like Fairchild and Mims stepped up late in the season. With elite weapons like Burrow, Chase, and Higgins, the line’s performance is critical to unlocking their full potential—continuity helps, but it’s not a magic fix.
