We obviously need to improve our pass blocking, but Burrow could avoid a lot of the sacks he takes.
Russell Wilson and Ben Roethlisbereger are going to the Hall of fame with championship rings despite taking a lot of sacks because they held onto the ball too long. If Joe can cut down on the picks then I can live with him taking some extra sacks.
But even if he can avoid some of the pressure he is seeing way too much pressure.
The O-line has improved some from last year. Last year Joe got sacked at the same rate despite just dinking and dunking in a short passing game. This year he has had the time to hit a lot of deep passes. I give them credit for improvement but it is not enough.
