He had a HC who had no business being a HC.
Ty Detmer gets hurt and they put Couch behind a oline made of cotton candy.
What happens. Couch gets hit the most times of any NFL qb that year.
Couch got beat up.so had his career got shortened from the beating.
Why did he get beat up. Cause his front office  failed to build a oline to protect him.

Burrow can say in public he likes being hit its football. But all it takes is one hit to.the knee or elbow
And it's good bye franchise QB.no QB enjoys getting hit over and over.

Burrow had more completions, yards, and TD's against the Browns than Couch had in his first two starts combined.

Couch put up numbers in college in a one read offense.  His struggles in the pro's were as much about reading defenses and going through his progressions as it was his OL.
