Keeping all 3 of those guys is going to make building a good o-line very difficult. The Burrow era narrative of a superstar qb being limited by subpar line play could be a theme for the length of his time here if they go for lots of shiny toys over adequate blockers.
The difference was injuries. End of question. If we didn't have 3 offensive linemen go down late in the year, it's a different ball game.
I get what you are saying, but you can't go out and pay 10 offensive linemen just so you have depth.
We obviously have some needs to fill (FS, RT, TE) but those are manageable.
