Early on, Graham was able to swat Hart’s hands away and get around him but Burrow was able to get the ball out quickly, so it didn’t go down as a pressure. I still counted it as a loss for Hart, however.
Hart guesses in pass blocking sets rather than relying on technique. What that results in is reps where he misses horribly and others when he guesses right that are manageable. Elite guys have set him up all year, essentially forcing him to guess wrong on each rep and making him look silly. He has guessed right a couple of times against elite guys like Bosa and Garrett and won the reps but they are few and far between.
