Against the Bengals, sacks dont matter! I know that sounds dumb but Burrow does not get rattled, it does not effect his play. He's been sacked 9 times in a game and still won. That doesnt mean we shouldnt sack him but its not as important as it would be against other opponents.
Pressure will be key, nearly instant pressure will effect the game. Burrow consistently gets the ball out in 2.5 seconds or less. That is how the inexperienced O line has held up.
This means the secondary has to cover tight for 3 seconds! No 5 or 8 yard cushions. Bump them at the line, disrupt the timing for just a second.
This is how you defend their Offense, sacks are great but the 2-3 seconds after the snap is crucial.
