The last 2 years he's played behind a bottom 5 offensive line in the playoffs each time and made a super bowl and another AFCCG. As bad as you say OBj is, he's still better than what they had.
The only thing keeping the Bengals from being the 2x defending champs right now is a really shitty, not just bad or average, offensive line. As long as they're healthy, this offense will be fine.

Didn’t this streak of greatness you’re referring to coincide with a really weak part of the schedule? Brings to mind when Bills fans were bragging about the #1 defense before KC hung 42 on them.
And of course you ignore the inconvenient fact that Burrow has one of the worst pressure to sack ratios in the NFL. And the other inconvenient fact that Brown is among the worst LTs in pressure rate.
Setting yourself up nicely for more disappointment I see.
