When a quarterback, especially a rookie, has to carry an offense while being surrounded by mediocrity the team will collapse around him once he is removed from the equation. This is known in science and engineering as a single point of failure. The truth is there for all to see: Joe Burrow was drafted to carry the entire offense but this offense is so bad it can’t be carried, not even by Joe Burrow.
Let the Front Office learn this lesson well. You have to surround your new franchise quarterback with talent immediately — not later.
Good point FIK and was echoed after they decided to go after Burrow.
My hope is, after MB passes, that the Brown family gets frustrated and sells out to new blood.
To me, that's the ONLY hope.
