And we can point out some of those sacks were on burrow. If he were on the bears the narrative would have been Burrows holds the ball too long, got hurt therefore he is a bust?I am not calling him a bust yet- far too early.
But you can certainly judge his play when he has time, and it has come up short frequently.
We heard these conversations with Grossman and cutler- "if only he had x,y, and z around him".
That shit only goes so far.
Someone mentioned Burrow in another thread- He started with an abysmal o-line, sacked 22 times in his first 5 games.
He was still able to limit mistakes and make good decisions. Despite the bad line and 40+ attempts per game over his first 5 starts, he only had 3 picks.
I dont expect 300 yards and 2 tds per game, but I do expect the boneheaded plays and bad throws to start slowing down.
Fields looks bad right now but no one is doing him any favors. I wish Nagy was fired today but it won’t happen
