Still seeing a Burrow who is getting absolutely crushed. Dude lost his nameplate on his jersey and was limping at least two separate times during this game alone. Leads the NFL in getting sacked.
Chase is great, but if the Bengals can't keep Burrow upright and healthy, then it doesn't matter who is at WR. The Chiefs defense came into the game 28th in sacks and got 4 against Burrow and plenty of more hits.
Yep. If this year has taught me anything, it's that BOTH sides of that stupid debate had extremely valid points. The only thing we were wrong about was pretending the other side was stupid.
Yes, Chase was a phenom and tough to pass up.
Yes our line is still hot garbage and Burrow is getting pummeled on a weekly basis. And no, it's not mostly on Joe or mostly on RBs or the tooth fairy.
If we can all admit that both sides had a point, maybe we could move on and just enjoy the best win of my lifetime without chucking this up every 5 minutes.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
