Can You Imagine If We Had A Good O-Line?!

Given that, we're 7-4, Burrow is 11th in yards and 5th in completion percentage, and Mixon is third in yards.

Can you imagine if we had a decent offensive line that gave Burrow the time to read defenses and throw the ball with no pressure?!

If we invest in the offensive line this offseason through free agency and the draft, we could be one of the best teams in the NFL next season!

Burrow's the real deal!

Am I wrong about being this excited?!

If they stay balanced on offense, watch for that ranking to climb.  It is SO HARD to be good in the NFL if the other team knows what is coming.  Remember all the lame runs on 2nd at 10?  Remember the Browns teeing off and hitting Burrow every snap knowing it was pass?  Those things are avoided (not completely) by having a more balanced rushing attack. 

The line also now seems to have some synergy with having the same guys together for a second week, and you can sense how much they love to run block.  Every offensive lineman does!  And it wears down a defense.  

I think, like the offense, that despite a rough start, they are starting to click and could be a top 10 unit by year's end.
