I mean, burrow throttled us 2/4 times but we’re quick to pin the last bad one on burrow despite playing with 3/5 of his OL injured. Because you could easily make the same argument that we’ve been bad in 3/4 fourth quarters… except last game, like burrow, we had an injury excuse.
Burrow with a healthy OL will press our offense. And cincys defense is good enough to get the stops many other defenses can’t against us to keep things tight. It’s a much more even matchup than we want to admit.

They had the 28th OL last year. All they’ve done is pick up our garbage in OBJ. They’re still not a great OL, and our DL should have its way with them.
