That's the thing...he's behind the 6th worst pass protecting OL. The chance of hitting your thumb on a defenders helmet or any other number of "one off " injuries magnifies. He takes a lot of sacks...even with an average line.
Bridgewater had two separate concussions last year....
Lock injured his shoulder in 2020 and 2021....
Flacco lasted 7 games then went on IR with a neck injury...
You guys act like losing Lock was no big deal...but your current back-up has thrown 26 passes in his career.
