“Worst First Step in the League”: Joe Burrow’s New Aid Gets Trashed by Patrick Mahomes’ Faithful Who Has Seen It All Firsthand

This offseason has been another one for massive changes. After Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs successfully won their second Super Bowl championship, teams are now resetting for another new season of the league in the coming days ahead. Among the teams, even their AFC rivals, the Cincinnati Bengals have made a few notable signings this offseason.

And one of the primary focuses for the Bengals was to bring in a reliable player to protect their QB Joe Burrow on the field. And to do that, they acquired their rivals Chiefs’ Super Bowl-winning OL. But this recruit gets trashed by fans of Mahomes, who go on to talk about the shortcomings of signing this new OL after he went on to talk about giving his all to protecting Burrow.

Orlando Brown Jr gives his two cents on protecting Joe Burrow

Orlando Brown Jr served two seasons as the Chiefs starting left tackle. And now, he’s gone on to sign a four-year $64 million deal with the Bengals this offseason. His signing is a big acquisition by the Bengals, as they were in need of more protection for their QB on the field. Protecting Mahomes and protecting Joe Burrow are going to be two different things for Brown Jr, as both teams follow different schemes and strategies along with their QB plays on the field. 

And recently, the 27-year-old offensive lineman seemed confident in protecting Joe Burrow from the edge rushers present in the AFC North division. Burrow has a faster ball release rate than Mahomes, as he takes 2.55 seconds to throw a pass with the ball. And Orlando Brown Jr. believes that this will prove to be an advantage in his responsibility of protecting Burrow with the ball.

Mahomes fans blast Brown Jr after watching him play for two years

Fans shared their opinions and perspectives of Orlando Brown Jr, as they have already seen him play two years as Patrick Mahomes’ protector on the field. 

One fan said, “He had trouble protecting Mahomes. Have fun.”

Another fan talked about how the Bengals needed the player, “Yet KC was gonna pay him big bucks for not protecting Mahomes🤣 He’s a better run blocker though and more honestly, they need that more so they can better develop the run game than have Mixon stutter step behind the line for a 2y loss.”

This fan replied to this by commenting about the Chiefs letting go of Brown Jr and his weaknesses, “They didn’t offer him a contract and let him walk. Tell me you don’t know what you’re talking about without telling me. Every Chiefs fans watched it last year so I know the guys that get paid to do it seem the same thing. He gets killed by speed. Worst first step in the league and his hurries prove it.”

Another fan said, “Sounds a lot like the last big name they signed, hopefully he isn’t all talk”

This fan commented, “Jonah Williams said the same thing and folded. Let’s just say I hope he’s right.”
