Not a single one of our original starting OL has missed a single start. Our original starting DL has only missed a total of 4 starts. Our original starting LBs haven't missed a single start. Our original 5 starting DBs have missed a total of 5 games. Our starting RB hasn't missed a single game. Our K, P, and LS have all been healthy. Even our starting 3 WRs have only missed a total of 5 games.
Everyone has injuries, and this year is being called the "year of the backup QB". Other teams hurt worse than us did better. The Bengals were just bad this year.
OUR QB1 wasn't completely recovered form his injury until week 8. Tee missed some time our CB 1 and WR2 missed significant time. Burrows injury is a part of it. The other part of the problem was poor S play making our LB and CB hold up in coverage longer, We have given way too many big plays and 3rd down conversions due too poor safety play
