Sucks regardless, but if its just the ACL not a hige deal all things considered. He should be ready before net years regular season, maybe even full go in the preseason.

HolmesPriest Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Sad to hear, Burrow seems like a pretty cool guy Best wishes in a speedy recovery. Maybe while he out, they can focus on finding him an offensive line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMossIsBoss Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 If it's just an ACL tear, I think there's reason to be optimistic he will be able to return to 100%, and probably by the 2021 season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sad People Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Hope for a speedy recovery and that he can come back better than ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 And the hits just keep coming in 2020. Sorry Bengals fans. I hope he can recover completely and be back to 100% next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have 1 Offensive linemen that should even be playing and thats their LT. The rest should be on someone's PS. it could be Luck.2 if they don't adjust their scheme for quick passes until the OL is much improved. A shame since he was having such a good season and is a leader. Also, this is where a running game helps. I never kept track, but how many RD1 type QB's have suffered because of bad OL's? This probably will continue, no end in sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could be risky for the timetable. Maybe a real training camp and preseason would be worse for the recovery, but lets hope he doesn't end up like many others that are brought back too early and re-injure. Would a knee brace have been of any help with the play that caused the injury? I never watched the play, I have seen enough of serious injuries.

Would a knee brace have been of any help with the play that caused the injury? I never watched the play, I have seen enough of serious injuries. Nope, defenders bent him back sort of awkwardly underneath himself. Was a low hit. Michael Jordan tried holding him and then they both lost balance and went into Burrow’s knee, who didn’t seem to feel that particular pressure from behind him. Not sure if it were a penalty, but if not, it definitely looked like one. Whether it was intentional or not, the defender ultimately went low and that led to the injury. Flacco was similarly injured some years back. It definitely sucks. The Bengals OL were turning the corner too. They’re not the same putrid unit they had been to start the season. They’ve seemingly been far closer to mediocre than terrible as of late. Sucks for that unit to give up this kind of play on their QB and draw attention to themselves. The pressure ultimately was surrendered by the LG, Michael Jordan. LG, Jordan and RG, Redmond are the two spots on the Bengals OL where they’ve still been below average. Trey Hopkins has been a massive upgrade over terrible Billy Price. At RT Bobby Hart has also been above average to good. And of course Jonah Williams looks like a future PB caliber player. But none of that matters because Jordan was bullied into a play that ultimately got his QB knocked out for the season. EDIT: I only post it because for an injury, this one isn’t as bad (to look at) as some of the more recent ones like the Alex Smith play or the Dak Prescott play. The big bodies seem to block just enough of the view to keep it from really getting to the stomach.

Sitting in the third draft slot, and the Jets and Jags have to be looking QB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck. But as far as Sewell, should be a lock for CIN tbh. Team is definitely picking top 3-5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoundrel Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I wanted to cry for Joe, but then I saw how tough he handled it and I said to myself if the man himself is not crying then I shall not shed a tear and admire his grit.
