Basically. We aren't losing on purpose, we just have a franchise that is completely screwed if one player gets hurt and he got hurt. As I've said a bunch of times, as long as Burrow gets hurt really bad this won't bite us in the arse, but if Burrow is out for a week or 2 and we need to keep our season alive until Burrow is back THEN we may feel the pain of having no plan B.
The fact that a 25% Burrow started this season rather than our geeeenius coaching staff and ultra awesome new culture using the entire "lost" preseason to get a backup QB and system ready to hold down the fort, says a lot.
