Any news on the tag?

If you want to be in a shootout that means Burrow is going to be dropping back 50 times a game again. Even with better protection, 50 dropbacks a game lends itself to a greater risk of injury. We need another pass rusher along with Carl Lawson, if we simply swap out Lawson for one we are probably as bad or worse in terms of our ability to get to the QB next year.

I get people like toys and all, but we have to have some sort of defense out there or else we will see gaudy stats but still a ton of losses.

I find it more interesting people are so willing to spend what is predicted to be ~$30m of the $46.6m in cap space the Bengals have in order to keep the 26th ranked defense together while their 1st overall pick QB is rehabbing from a destroyed knee behind a shitty OL.

Burrow was ALREADY dropping back an enormous amount, even with Lawson. That's Zac Taylor's "scheme". As of halftime of the Washington game, Burrow was averaging 42 passes per game. He was on pace to tie for the 6th most attempts ever in a single season.

The year before that, Dalton averaged 40.6 passes per start under Taylor, on pace for the 17th most pass attempts ever in a single season. As long as Taylor is calling the plays, they are going to throw a TON. That's just something you should already accept. So not planning and getting the best possible protection for your injured 1st overall pick QB in order to hold together the 26th ranked defense is folly.

The Bengals were already dead last in sacks in 2020 with Lawson. I wasn't aware you could get worse than last.
