I'm not saying our OL played badly or the o line coach didn't do a great job but ALOT of huge plays the O line broke down, and Burrow made chicken salad out of chicken shite. Mawae played 16 years at C(the most cerebral of of o line positions) at the highest level, 8 pro bowls, 2 all pro's, multiple years as NFLPU president....and is a tiger through and through, if you don't think that guy would be a positive addition who the hell would be

Compared to 2018, the 2019 OL played lights out better. Burrow had time to make those deep crossing routes, in 2018 it was less of a spread and more about protecting Joe from being killed.

And is a Hall of Famer. How many guys with that resume get into college coaching? College coaching—especially assistants—is a fricking grind. Office at 6 a.m., home at 10 p.m. and that’s when they’re actually at home and not on the road driving a rental car in BFE to go kiss some snot nose 16-year-olds’ arse in the hopes, he might come play for you in a couple of years.

It seems to me, most long-tenured NFL guys play that long so they WON’T have to do that. Forget even Hall of Famers, how many guys who played 10+ years in the NFL (recently, when the money has been great) are college assistant coaches? Are there even any? I love Mawae, think he’d probably make a great Oline coach, and could probably recruit if you put someone in front of him. But he seems like a family man, and I just can’t imagine him wanting to put in the ridiculous hours college assistants have to. Why would he?
