I would rather gamble with the OL than our franchise.

Yeah, the odds of Burrow getting killed while taking 13 sacks and 20 hits in the first 2 weeks is way greater than the offensive line going to complete shit because of getting injured in the preseason.

Also worth noting if we're playing what-if with injuries? If the Bengals had won both Week 1 and 2 they would have already locked the #1 seed down already heading into Week 18. They would have sat starters against the Ravens (the game where Cappa got hurt) and then they would have had a bye for Wildcard Weekend (where Jonah got hurt).

Getting an extra 1-2 weeks off at the end of the season is probably a whole lot more beneficial for all the guys bodies than playing some drives in the preseason can potentially be bad for the body.

Can't let Burrow go into a season where the OL isn't ready again.
