It's not Williams or the O Line. It is NOT Mixon. It is NOT Burrow. The Bengals look awful because of the One Dimensional Play Calling by Zac Taylor. Every single play is Shotgun Formation and just about every play is a Pass. So of course the Defense is going to be coming and sack Burrow a lot. Of course there will be little time to throw down field. The Zac Taylor Offense is impossible for any O Line or Quarterback to Win in. Zac ran more in 2021 due to Burrow knee brace, but in 2022 Zac is just going Shotgun Pass almost every single play, and Defenses are teeing off on Zac's One Dimensional Offense that he might have learned in Arena League, but it won't work in NFL.
So you Fans can want all new Blockers again, and again, but THE PROBLEM is Zac has almost every play in the game a Shotgun Pass. You Fans may Love It, but it is why Defenses pour in, and why Bengals are 4-4 and 0-3 in AFC North in 2022. The Play Calling STINKS. It is too Arena League and Smash Mouth NFL Teams are clobbering Zacs WEAK play calling of 99 % Shotgun Pass all game.
Even I could call Defenses against Bengals. Bengals line up in an empty backfield shotgun a lot. So just blitz more defenders than blockers and throw Burrow on his butt. It's not rocket science. However if Zac called about 50 % running plays or even 40 % runs, The RUN would set up The PASS. The O line would look better, Mixon would look better, Burrow would look better, The Bengals would look better. However this will NOT happen, because Zac thinks he is in The Arena League or the USFL and he is determined to Shotgun Pass almost every single play, often with no RB in the Open Backfield. Defenses lick their chops becausec since it can not be a run, they blanket the WR's and throw Burrow on his butt .....IT IS THE PLAY CALLING of running the same formation and pass play all game long. Anybody on here could put out a Defensive Package to stop Zac's One Dimensional Offense. It is also a Total Waste of Mixon if Zac refuses to call any running plays.
