Yep and as bad as the O-line pay bothered me early on.
Understand that O-lines play as units and having 4 new starters makes it not an easy task to achieve cohesiveness immediately.

Have we played them since we helped them out?
Meh, all friendship will be lost when we play them later this season.

I watched every sack of the 2021 playoffs and it was my opinion that Burrow was at fault for most of them.
Against the Saints every sack he took was the lines fault imo. He was throwing every quickly and accurately.

Umm…no. Mixon was 100% responsible for one them.

I do think the general consensus on the board is now trending towards Burrow being the main issue in regards to Sacks.
2021 was a hell of a run and exciting with the long bombs to Chase but those days have expired quickly. The new version of the Bengals need to be like last Sunday. Play for the first down take the check down and if the opportunity does come you take the shot downfield.

Damn right we did. And rightfully so. To his credit, Burrow is one of the best at making the most out of his OL. He had lots of practice. OL was super overrated in college, but he made them look good.
Bengals with a top 5 OL will be absolutely nasty. So many playmakers. Very curious as to what changes will be made. OL already looks way better now though.

I meant to include him and in “the line”
I was basically saying he didn’t contribute to any sacks by being indecisive

Would like to thank you as well. Obviously the Bengals fanbase is not the biggest per so many losing years and being in a small market.
Plus has another team in the state to divide the population.
Thanks for your support !
