I don't know what is more cringe, the Raiders offensive line or the ESPN going to break music.

They also play Dallas in two months. I have always said this makes no sense. You know the man comes from an organization where they cheated for information and you are just handing it to him in droves.

Joe Burrow has always had absolutely elite wideouts and hes made of glass dudes out for 12 weeks from a routine sack play. Burrow also doesnt help his line at all with his playstyle. Is it Kyler Murray bad no of course not, but dude is hurt bad every other season from pretty weak contact.
Burrow is much better than Cousins, but your criticisms are fair
Average pocket time as starters:
Love - 2.4 seconds
Burrow - 2.3 seconds
Pressure percentage:
Love - 20.2%
Burrow - 20.9%
Sack percentage:
Love - 4.20%
Burrow - 7.22%
??????????!!!!
That's a massive gap in sack rate. For an average season(~550 pass attempts), it's the difference between being sacked 24 times versus 43 times.
Can't blame the line. Burrow and the Bengals need to adjust their playstyle

Looks like the line is a big part of the problem.

Burrow's an awesome QB who's been stuck behind one of the worst lines in football his entire career. Dude was a field goal away from dragging those incredibly mediocre Bengals teams to back-to-back Super Bowls. What are we doing here?

Yeah, I've seen this stuff before and I'm sure the OL has its shortcomings but...
Supposedly a bottom 1 OL + high blitz rate (only Mayfield is blitzed more) = league average pressure rate? And then the league average pressure rate leads to the most sacks in the league
Idk, it just doesn't add up on its own. Bengal fans say Burrow needs to make the easier throws and I think they're right. But not because the offense sucks....Burrow is still putting up a ton of points and is a top 4 QB. But he needs to limit the sacks and hits because right now he's on the Andrew Luck trajectory

Joe Burrow and his Super Bowl, AFC Championship game, is the same as Kirk Cousins with 1 playoff win??? This site is crazy. Saying Bengals have elite wide receivers is true, but Justin Jefferson is pretty good too.

Don't care, always gonna be an Aaron Jones fan. Glad we got Jacobs when we did, loved the move at the time and still do, just always gonna love that dude and how he always stomped the Cowboys when we played them.
