What does it say about the team's "culture" when the QB gets hit while sliding twice in the same half and not a single damn guy does anything about it? Zero chance that Whit, AJ, or Gresham would have sat around and watched while Burrow gets hit sliding twice.

As if Burrow wasn't getting hit enough when illegal ones are added to the mix.

While the hits were against the rules and were good calls by the refs, they weren't exactly "big" hits either. Now, had Burrow got lit, I'm sure more than a few Bengals players would've taken umbrage and tut tut'd their displeasure to the offending player while within mere inches away from his visage.
