That’s a very good example but there’s a vast difference in putting a healed Joe Flacco behind the Ravens’ perennially good offensive line and putting a healed Joe Burrow behind The Five Turnstiles of Orthopedic Doom. In fact, I do NOT want Joe Burrow back in the lineup until the offensive line is addressed; that means new coaches, personnel, and scheme.
