Feel free to read up on scouting reports on Burrow regarding arm strength and how he rainbows deep passes into buckets/zones instead of driving them down field. This is ARM STRENGTH related. The negative to this style of throwing is that it gives NFL DBs the extra time they need to adjust and catch up.
Can this be helped with accuracy, timing, scheme, etc? YES. With PRACTICE (Burrow got in very limited offseason work with his teammates last year)? YES. No one should be worrying about Burrow's deep passes at this point in his career. He has historically been a very accurate deep ball thrower.
