Yes, they absolutely did. I know you admittedly don’t watch all the games, but it was an issue all season. Even when Burrow had time. If you exclude all the plays in this set of clips where Burrow was being pressured (which was a bunch), you still have to see that our WR’s were not getting open on the rest of them.

Watch these and mark down each time the WR is blanketed and how many times the QB is pressured. https://t.co/EbL1CnIw7C

From those clips, I'd say it was Xeno. On most of those, it's not that the WR isn't getting a step away, it's the defender is running the exact same route. There's some over throws (meh, Burrow was a rookie), but everything else in the clip from :35 seconds on is like the defenders were working out of the same playbook.
