No, this isn’t about the pass-blocking struggles of the Cincinnati Bengals offensive line in front of Joe Burrow. It’s about the complete lack of fire from an offensive line that watches its quarterback get mauled — even after whistles — and just trots back to the next huddle for another play.

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was hit, hit and hit some more in Thursday night's 35-34 loss to the Ravens. Baltimore had plenty of clean hits on the star signal-caller, but they also got away with a few late hits that should've been penalties,

After Burrow threw a touchdown pass to Ja'Marr Chase with 38 seconds to play to cut Baltimore's lead to 35-34, the Bengals kept the offense on the field for a go-ahead two-point try. Burrow's pass to Tanner Hudson fell incomplete and allowed Baltimore to hang on, albeit with some controversy.
