When your life depends on someone, I guess you will say anything complimentary even if it's a pretty transparent lie.

From ESPN article on Orlando Brown:
As a team, the Bengals are 30th in pass block win rate. But Brown, who was 18th in win rate as a tackle in 2022 with Kansas City, is 47th in 2023 with the Bengals.
That hasn’t stopped the praise from people inside the building, however.
“He’s as advertised,” Burrow said after the Bengals beat the San Francisco 49ers on Week 8. “He’s a great player. Big, strong, athletic. You saw it [against the 49ers] blocking some of the best edge rushers in the league.”
