It's a passing league

Rarely does a qb get hurt when he hands the ball off.

And we’ve been through this already, Bengals with Joe Burrow were top 3 in pass attempts.

You’re being disingenuous when you talk about the offense being balanced when that was only the case when our starting qb was injured

Of course, if you run the ball more often, your RB is more likely to get injured.  It's not like our star RB isn't also coming off a season ending injury.  In fact, he got injured before Burrow with what you're saying is a light workload.  Can Joe handle the workload?  There is a sharp dropoff to Perrine and unknowns behind him.  If Joe goes down again, we're going to be one dimensional on offense again, whether anybody wants that or not.

You can't put your QB or your RB on a pitch count. You call the game to try and win.  You can't win calling the game scared.
