I just find it quite coincidental that those good games from Joe happened to occur on the same days that the OL was able to move some people off the ball and open some holes..
He had just one good game last year (Jax) and our rushing attack was just a mess last year. The run blocking might be just as important as the pass blocking this year in keeping Burrow healthy. If he has to throw it 40+ times every game because we can't run again, that's probably a real bad sign for the whole damn works.
"Mixon is great, but those guys can't block worth a sh*&!" is what went through my mind most of last year.
