This doesn’t include post season stats either.

Luck was sacked 11 times in his whole playoff career (8 games), Burrow has been sacked 29 times in the playoffs (7 games)

    I don’t watch much Bengals, but isn’t that offense a lot of go routes and 4 WR sets? I imagine he holds onto the ball longer based on scheme alone.

    Luck also ran with wreckless abandon and sought out contact with defenders…but yeah this doesn’t look great for Burrow.

    I’m not educated on football enough to know this but I’ve heard some people say sacks are predominantly a QB stat. How true is that really?

    Didn’t they choose Chase over an Offensive line player because burrows wanted Chase? Not saying it was a bad idea but this could’ve changed a lot for Burrows

    I’m thankful they didn’t take Penei Sewell, and I understand Chase is legendary, but man Sewell certainly would have taken a lot of sacks of Burrow’s face.

    Is it just the o-line or is he taking too long with his reads? Long developing wr play calling?

    Getting sacked in football 8-10 years ago is a lot worse than sacks today. Back then quarterbacks got lit up, now tapping them on the helmet is a flag

    What is this supposed to tell me?

    Burrow needs to get the ball out quicker?

    Bengals need better OL?

    Too many deep routes, need more short passes?

    All of this is up to the Bengals.

    And Burrow is the HIGHEST PAID QB in the NFL, so kinda hard to build around that from and OL perspective

    Our OL was bad but another reason Luck kept getting hurt was because he played like Josh Allen and Cam Newton at times. Issue was while he wasn’t small he wasn’t as big as either of them and he took a ton of hard hits.

    Won us a lot of games but the regular sacks plus those killed him
