Offensive Line Rating and Joey Franchise

With skill players like Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd, Joe Mixon, and CJ Uzomah the Bengals should be blowing the doors off every opponent on the offensive side of the ball.  The truth is Joe Mixon is getting mauled by defensive lineman and linebackers and Joe Burrow does not have time to throw deep.  He’s been sacked and knocked down more than any other quarterback in the league and this is why he leads the league in interceptions.  

Joe Burrow is mobile to a certain degree but he’s primarily a quintessential pocket quarterback like Carson Palmer.  Behind bad pass protection both Burrow and Palmer have similar results: Spectacular passing interspersed with way too many head-scratching interceptions.
Agree with the majority of your post especially the lack of improvement of line when u put all in perspective
