The Bengals OL. They're about the only thing that may stop Joe Burrow and his future in this league.

I recall watching the game in overtime, and the commentators were praising Phillys pass rush for showing up this week after getting some sacks and it was like... no, its not Philly showing up, its the Bengals OL.

I watched a LB blitz the B gap virtually untouched, make violent and yet clean torso contact with Burrow, and it's not even the biggest shot that he's taken in the last 10 days. They may need to rethink whether or not he should be in there since he's their future. I know that you can't "justify it" since he's clearly the best QB on their roster, but if they can't protect him, or even come close to it, they'll ruin him.

Well, benching him isn't the answer. I know he's the #1 overall pick and they have a ton of weapons at wideout, but sometimes you just have to swallow your pride and do what makes sense for the team. Go run heavy, two tight end sets with them staying in to block the majority of the time. Move to quick, underneath routes to get the ball out faster. Do the little things to maximize the capabilities (or lack thereof) of the offensive line.

I absolutely couldn't believe that they let him throw the ball 60+ times against Cleveland a week ago. That's absurd.
