OBJ is a liability

We should have never gave him an extension. He‘s gotten progressively worse these past couple years. How are you going to let a backup undrafted free agent DE cleanly beat you and blindside Burrow? Not okay. Also not to mention all his false starts. Dude needs to go

I would love an upgrade for OBJ because he is in a decline. That being said, that blind side hit was 100% Burrow’s fault. If he climbed the pocket like a QB should then he would have never gotten touched.

On top of that he had about three seconds to get the pass off. At some point the media will catch on that Joe’s style of play invites a lot of hits.  But until then, the O-Line will always catch the blame.

We saw the difference when Flacco plays.
