Do, they hold on to ball much too long at times.
A QB getting hit  has much too it than just a olineman 
Getting pushed back or protection breaking down.
Having a QB drop back 50 times a game, well chances are
He is going to get hit. 
Ive seen QBs behind good olines get  hit and the next thing you  know that are finished for the year.
Tom Brady
Ben Rothlisberger
Andy Dalton 
Joe Theisman
Bert Jones

QBs take hits all the time. Even behind really good olines.
Zac didnt help matters,by have a inept oline coach and 
A pass run ratio guarenteed to beat up a QB.

So now the belief is our line is fine cause we signed Reiff and that Burrow was the issue?

I'm.... stunned.

At the end of the season there was no one on this board that wasn't screaming about how bad the line was. There was a huge debate about needing to lose the remaining games to get the #2 pick to be certain we got Sewell cause that was what we needed.

Now... we approach the draft and it's like Groundhog's Day here.

We deflect from the real issue. Get obsessed with shiny new toys. And think that depth pieces will develop into Pro-Bowl level starters.

This is why Mike Brown is a successful businessman. All he has to do is sacrifice an assistant coach and make one actual upgrade on the line and the fan base thinks all is well.
