right I remember that guy saying andy missed him... But boyd slipped and couldn't make his break as intended.... that was going for a big gain

You tell me don't you notice we always get block in the back calls. It's like they are being taught to cheat.

Link?
I don't notice us getting any more of those than other teams.

Exactly.

In 17 we were tied for 4th.
In 18 we were first.

for OL penalties (holding false starts)
Hart was 2nd in the league
Redmond was 5th.
Those two were killing us offensively.

With 11 teams. 14 teams had as many of those penalties as the Bengals.
Interesting to see that through the years the Bengals are usually near the top. But it also looks like they started calling more of those penalties over the last couple of years. There was a huge (41%) increase in the number of calls from '16 to '17 (123 to 173). And another significant increase (9%) from '17 to '18.
