Premiere pass rushers have honed in on him specifically because he is the weakest link on the OL.
If I'm Taylor and Pollack, I'd give him maybe one more year after this one to get his s**t together before looking at a potential upgrade, and that's only because I drafted him. If it were me personally, I'd be looking for an upgraded starter next offseason if he doesn't come around by the end of the regular season this year.
Burrow dropped back 51 times, he was sacked twice. Donald is the best DL in the game and the OL gave up 2 sacks with a sitting duck QB who can barely move.
I think our fans expectations are beyond realistic. Great defensive players beat OL each week. Great WR's beat DB's every week. It is expected and I watched Volson again today, overall he did a good job. I am interested to see the grades for each of our 5 starters.
We had no holding penalties on 51 drop backs also, that is very good.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
