I think that is one reason Burrow has looked SO uncomfortable in the pocket. When you get beat around the arc the QB can step up and the slide left or right back under the tackle. When you get beat wide then inside the rusher comes free with a direct line and it forces the QB to try and go back and over the tackle which often times results in the QB running into the tackle. We have seen that second one play out quite a few times the last two weeks. 

I think it's time to tell the tackles to slow play the arc and at least give Burrow a chance to slide up because getting beat so bad inside is essentially a game ender. 

Yep. You can still give the QB time if they have a pocket to step into.
They don't have that right now.
Everyone is coming right into Burrow and he's trying (having?) to make plays with his legs to compensate.
