If you put Patrick Mahomes on this team surrounded by all this talent, do you not think he couldnt win a Super Bowl with all the weapons Burrow has? And now Burrow has Mahomes LT.  All the top QBs could.   Mahomes won the Super Bowl last year with Travis Kelce as his one big receiving threat.  He didnt have threats like Chase or Higgins.  Even in the Super Bowl against Tampa Bay where he had to run for his life Mahomes was still making plays.  He threw many passes including touchdowns that his receivers just dropped.   This Bengals offense needs to do better than the 17 points they scored against the Ravens and 20 they scored against K.C. in the playoffs.

Defense under Lou has played great and won us most of our Playoff games. It is true that Burrow needs to take that next step and
carry this team a bit, will agree with that, but the terrible OL's in front of him have been the problem, not his play.

If this OL is great in front of Burrow we are the front runners to win the next Super Bowl IMO.

Well the OL for Brady and Mahomes were near the best in the league. I think if our OL can rise to top 10 then we should win it all. Of course injuries play a part.
