Burrow is holding ball to long

He’s my favorite player and I hate to say this, but for his sake, he needs to demand a trade. I just don’t see him getting to the SB ever again, which is what everyone was afraid of when he got drafted by you guys. Eventually the chickens would come home to roost. Looks like it’s happening.

I think he’ll demand a trade at the end of the season, if he has any sense. It’s a shame that the Bengals don’t think he’s worth protecting.

That's a bit extreme, but I also find the idea that Burrow would never dream of playing anywhere but here to be fading the more and more "on pace to be sacked a record amount of times" games we see piling up.

Keep in mind too that Burrow watched a QB who spent 12 years being a "stat padder who will never win a SB" win a SB in his first year on a less snakebitten franchise.  If we keep botching this year it'll be wishful thinking to assume Burrow won't have it cross his mind again.  Does the guy live to spend his entire career being driven into the Paycor Field™ turf?
