He doesn't seem to move well. It's like he's got bricks on his feet. Not to mention when the line falls apart he just sort of turtles up and waits to be hit. He doesn't try to run much, and he doesn't get away when he does. And when he does, he's slooooow. Granted, I'm not expecting him to move like Wilson or Allen, but damn... this is proving to be his one big flaw. With better movement some of those sacks wouldn't have happened.

I think sometimes you have to learn how to take a sack to reduce the impact of them over the course of the season. Especially when you lead the league in sacks taken. Better football IQ guys then me continue to say Burrow takes a lot of sacks and hits though.

He had nowhere to go. There were jail breaks.

Bruh the Titans d-line didn't give him a chance... this was murders row and Burrow somehow escaped Alcatraz

This is what happens when fans don't prepare for the upcoming opponent.

I actually think he moves fairly well, it’s hard to move, and not look awkward doing it when the whole D is in your face almost as fast as the ball is snapped. How many times this season has he rolled out of a defenders arms got to the outside and thrown completions!

3rd string Guard and 2nd string tackle on the left on a shallow offensive line will cause that...

The good news is he a better athete than Manning and Brady so once he gets a real OL, I think he will do just fine
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

He moves fine. Dodges lots of sacks tbh.
Line is terrible and desperately needs fixed. We have literally everything else.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

He moves well enough but you can tell he hates throwing it away. So much so that when it's the right play he still believes in himself too much so. Even the greats have to throw it away when a rusher is bearing down and he can't take a sack. I think it happened at least twice tonight to take them out of FG range. He is amazing but that's one change to make going forward.

This is one of the worst threads I’ve read this season and that’s saying something.

If he can take a million sacks and neither turn the ball over, nor get hurt it is clear he's doing something right.

I think he was going to give it to someone.

Always have to have one in the crowd...
Wait. This was the first Bengals game you've ever seen, right?
