There’s a Way to Wake Up the Offensive Line — But it’s Too Mean
#24
When defensive backs are getting so many sacks and QB hits it is not because they are overpowering the O-linemen.

We saw how important scheme was last year when we turned around the running game midseason without changing players. Right now a lot of the pressure is coming from blitzes and stunts by the D-linemen. Thy are getting outcoached more than overpowered.

I also believe that Burrow is forced to hold onto the ball too long because our passing schemes don't get receivers open. Andy Dalton did not look that bad in 2018, but last year he was total shit. I don't believe he forgot how to play QB in just one offseason. It would help eliminate some sacks if Burrow threw the ball away more, but you can't get first downs by throwing the ball away all the time either.
