I'm not even sure if at the point of breakdown to step up and read(which again didn't look safe)and throw out of bounds were even possible.
There just wasn't enough time for route development for the receivers or to wait for one to break coverage.
Here's the tweet I saw breaking the play down. I thought the same as you before seeing this but now it looks like a failure mainly on Mixon and Burrow. Even though the line broke down but still did enough to work.

Weird that we're on year 2 of not being able to replace Gio's pass blocking. Doesn't seem like it should be that hard of a thing to replace, but I guess when Mixon's got big bucks and Zac loves him some Perine, there isn't a lot of room for anyone else?

Maybe they did it some. But I expected them to have a RB/TE on whatever side Parsons was the whole game to chip him. Not sure why that wasn't a thing. Especially after the start where he was wrecking havoc.

At the end of that clip though the O-line "pocket" was backing up and closing. Pretty weak stuff.
Burrow making that throw is hanging on a sliver. I just don't see it.

JJ posted in another thread a tweet from Ben Baby where Callahan said the limited amount of off-ball snaps for Parsons was a surprise. They were just ill prepared for the best player on their opponents entire team, apparently. Confidence inspiring.
They couldn't even reliably keep Parsons from being completely unblocked and you want them to manage to get TWO blockers on him? Talk about high expectations.

Crazy
If you were playing the 88 Giants or whatever. Do you think the opposing coaches gave a crap where Lawrence Taylor lined up ? You identify where the elite player is and go from there.

I saw that quote and didn't think too much of it. But Parsons is amazing rushing the passer along with the rest of his game. It should not be surprising to our staff that the Cowboys wanted to put that against our oline as much as possible. I mean I'm speechless.

It was by no means perfect. If I think he could make the play it's only because I've seen him make those special plays. I can't blame Burrow even if he's starting to struggle. I have to blame the staff for continuing to put him out there when we haven't put as much effort as we can to protect him.

It’s probably my least favorite jersey of the 3 looks-wise (it did grow on me some last season) but for whatever reason our record is really good in them. Even going back to the last version of the orange.
And it really would make sense for a team called the Bengals to wear orange as their primary. I think we’re only wearing them once this season because of the white Tiger uniforms.

Yeah, they've always played well in orange. I think 27-8 overall.
