We've given up 122 sacks in the last 2 seasons, but "only" 102 of those were Burrow.

Additionally, they had others returning from injury. PLUS they fired the OL coach and rehired the guy we wish they had kept 2 years before. Couple that with multiple moves on the OL including first round draft picks in previous years and it shows us it isn't lack of attention being paid...it is lack of success
It just didn't work out the way they, we, or Joe wanted.
Grabbing a so-so free agent and using 2nd, 4th and 6th round picks is a "try", sure...but I think that kind of haul is a "C" effort for a problem that screams for an "A+" effort.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
