I think one of the reasons Bo Nix has been so good is his O Line, I don't think he is as good as his record BUT the O Line is helping the young kid do things he normally would not be able to do...............your O Line can make or break a QB so it makes sense where were at on this chart
They've played well enough to win without going to the E.R since the changes were made. 15th. Stroud just has to trust them.
What's crazy is the Bengals are ranked 25th in offensive line pass protection and the Texans 27th, yet Burrows has thrown 30 touchdowns and only 5 interceptions. https://www.sharpfootballanalysis.com/analysis/nfl-offensive-line-pass-run-block-rankings-win-rat e/
Give me a break if you think Burrows couldn't do better than Stroud right now with Nico, Dell, and Schultz to target. Come on man, be real. The Bengals don't have much better of an offensive line than we do, but Burrows has twice as many touchdowns and half as many interceptions as CJ.
Joe Burrow might be the best qb in football this year. Not too many qbs have his stats this season. No shame in that. CJ will be fine.
I have faith in CJ being much better if we make some needed changes to our offensive line in the off-season to make it better. Not sure that will happen though any more than us getting someone better than Slowik as our offensive coordinator. CJ just hasn't done well under a lot of pressure, and isn't much of a running threat when he scrambles away from defenders.
It's hard to ignore the fact that he leads the league with 15 penalties though. He still needs to play smarter. Those penalties kill us at times.
Seriously...it's like saying... Green was a damn good guard if you ignore the pressures he gave up. I fcking hate arbitrary stat exclusion to make a player seem better than they really are.
