Expecting some crazy defensive sets Sunday

[MPL]

If you blitz Burrow, he's going to kill you. If you don't blitz Burrow, he's going to kill you. Your best defense is going to be scoring a lot of points.

At least if they blitz he might feel some pain. But yeah i would hope the O can put up 33 points and that should be enough.

Burrow gets the ball out fast. We need coverage to get him to hold on to the ball a little longer, while hoping simulated pressures can get through to him. He basic 4 man pass rush has been getting nowhere near the QBs.

have you seen the Bills pass rush data over the last four games? They don’t get home when they blitz, and they don’t hit the quarterback much either. That said, they have affected the qb by blitzing and so they probably should blitz burrow, I’m just not confident he won’t pick them apart. But if they can force a few key stops, the offense should be able to do enough.

I would bring the house on Burrow on every obvious and even non obvious pass plays.  Rough him up like they did Mahomes. Every time we play Burrow he sets up back there and has all day to pick em apart.  The extra coverage doesn’t help. 

This makes sense and I highly doubt it happens,  more like db's playing 10 yards off the line and no pass rush while allowing Burrows to cave them up.

The Bengals offensive line is terrible.  It will be disappointing if we can't get pressure even without Bosa.

This is a game Rousseau needs to step up.  AJ needs to do something.  Walker needs to wreck a little in the middle.  

Epenesa didn’t practice yesterday.  Foot issue.
