Do you agree that the Bengals have "failed Joe Burrow"?

Most are stress and healed with simple rest.

Most turf toe is not caused by a 280 NFL lineman holding your foot while you fall over.

He gets "over-used". Chances for injury go up if you are the "whole team". Hurts doesn't have to drop back 40 times a game. The team looked better this year before he got hurt. But 2-0 ain't chopped liver either. Defense actually got some stops when it counted.

The Bengals are a "perfect storm" of sorts. I believe there are multiple reasons for Burrow's long list of injuries. I'm just saying it's always easy to blame the "system" when there are other factors as well.

Then I wouldn't call that turf toe. That's just fat fuckery.

Have the imbecile bengals ever had a decent back that lasted more than a couple years?

If he was on the Tom Brady O-line, Bellicheat Defense he too would have 4-6 SB rings.

But, He is big and not that quick. Like you say, he adds to it. Usually the big helps out. Harder to injure a behemoth. But he is in harms way too often compared to some. In the olden days though, they really took some shots. Dan Fouts? Theisman era?
