I would think that having Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd, Joe Mixon, and a guy named Joe Burrow at QB had to have helped. I'll bet if we had that crew we could have weathered some offensive line injuries quite well.
Oh absolutely yeah having those guys is a game changing event.
My main point though, is that despite injuries to that O line, the backup players have still come in for the Bengals are playing like starters and have flat out bullied the Bills D line.

Injuries happen to ALL teams but GOOD DEPTH is key.

Saints need to observe and implement.
He had zero sacks and 1 tackle sounds like trey destroying LTs left and right

Rell, did you read my post #53?

I was speaking of injuries (depth) and how good teams are able to overcome and pivot.

Davenport should watch some of Trey's tape.
Where did he show up ? He literally didn't make a play or it only matters when ita Davenport?

Funny, Chargers' fans were saying the same every time Brees threw a TD. Or Jets' fans when Vilma made a tackle for a loss.

Sure, but you never know until later. San Diego thought they'd made the right decision at the time, too. Hindsight is always 20/20.

I am pretty sure no one felt that Hendrickson would not produce on the next contract, which he got at Cincy. It's more a matter of what the Saints thought they had in Davenport , the two number ones it took to get him,
and what they invested overall in P Turner and Davenport. If ones removes those two picks, which one could argue should not have been made , Hendrickson is so easily affordable . The very same decision exists Granderson. He's a rising star just like Hendrickson was. And the Saints need to keep him.

Now to really play 20/20, just who could the Saints have drafted in lieu of Davenport and Turner?

Re: Marcus Davenport

In other news, seeing Bill Vinovich reffing the 9ers game made me want to puke.

Hope Dak or Purdy throw one right in his senile face.
