It held Chris Jones to his 5th worst game with only 2 hurries and no sacks their first game. And the entire line gave up only 5 hurries. Against Buffalo it played very well with only 12 hurries. It’s like some of you blocked out how well they were playing in our 10 game win streak. And yes Volson will be our LG come September.

Are we praising and throwing an "only" on a number that would still amount to a 204 hurry season total, now? Don't know how that would rank in the NFL in 2022, but found an article about the 2018 season where the most hurries a team allowed was 166. That was obviously 16 games since it was 2018, but even 16 games at 12 a game is still 192. 

All that despite Burrow getting the ball out the 2nd fastest in the NFL.
