Burrow is gonna have a nice set of skill guys between him, Boyd, Ross, Eifert (if he can stay healthy for once in his life), and Mixon. Certainly could be worse! Just look at tua with Miami possibly who just gave Erik Flowers a monster deal.

That's nice and all but if they don't do something about that o-line, it won't really matter how many weapons he has.

A step down for him from last year's WR corps but not bad.

And that terrible OLine will have faith which will make them play harder happened to us last year. That’s how it works for winners

He may not, but he's only had 2 seasons in his career where he missed a large chunk of games. In the beginning of the season he was set to miss 4-6 weeks (it was going to be about 3 games because the injury happened in August) but by the time he was ready to go the Bengals were so bad there was no point in him coming back.

Even if he only plays 8 games, it's still better than having your top target be DeVante Parker or a rookie.

The Bungles have $45 million in cap space and 7 draft picks.
The Dolphins have the most cap space in the NFL ($100 million) and 14 draft picks including 3 in the 1st round and 2 in the 2nd round. They are also talking about moving down from 5, picking up another 1st rounder and taking Jordan Love at #18. That Dolphin roster will look very different come September.

Completely agree. Add with that Joe is a natural born leader. Those guys will buy in big time. They’ll pick up a couple good o-line through the draft and through off-season trades. I think they’re two or three years away from being a contender if they’re smart. Let’s hope Mike Brown can see the forest for the trees.

I mean to say the Oline is awful is understandable but if the scheme is fricked so is the line when it comes to protection I don’t care who the lineman are. All these guys were superior college players which is why they are in the NFL. They will be fine especially if Eifert and Green stay healthy as mentioned above.

So the Bengals win 2, 3 games next year?

His best hope is to sign for the fewest years possible, suffer through the franchise tag (assuming he doesn't look terrible because of the terrible team) and move on to somewhere else.

They’re getting their first round LT back as well

Also Daniel Jerimiah mentioned on a podcast that despite us winning the award for having the best Oline, Burrow faced a large amount of pressure last year, far far more than Tua, and handled it beautifully. If that translates he will be in good shape

You don't think Joe and aj green is good enough to make some noise. Dalton made the playoffs there like 5 times

Can someone explain this....

When people say the Oline sucks, are they saying this because:
- the players suck? These are drafted players that were good to great in college.
- the scheme sucks? Still the same as before
- the coaching sucks? Does it have that big of impact?
- the quarterback sucks and so the motivation isn’t there. If that’s the case, does a sucky line become a good line with a strong quarterback?

No. Dalton is not the problem there.
