1. The preseason concerns were legit. He had all kinds of drops and was talking about stripes on the side of the ball, etc.
2. This performance went a long way to start putting those concerns to bed, and he already showing why we drafted him.
3. Burrow still got pummeled, so unfortunately the basis of this entire debate lives on.
Why would the basis for this debate live on?
Jonah, Spain, and Reiff didn't allow a pressure or a sack. XSF allowed 2 pressures but no sacks.
Hopkins allowed 2 sacks, but Sewell doesn't play C and nobody he would have potentially displaced does, either. Mixon, Perrine, and Sample allowed the others. In fairness, on the one Sample allowed, Burrow got to his second read and double clutched it.
They had an effective run game.
If there's debate, it should be why the Bengals didn't go after Corey Linsey.
