Tampa, LA, and I forget the third. Maybe Green Bay? It can be a useless stat as pitt was last in the league last year in the same measure (I refuse to refer to them as one of the best teams) but they had so many screens (led the NFL) that it was really an extension of their run game, and got the added benefit of padding the fat pig's stats.
Right now, my biggest concern is scheme/design. The short passes are low %, highly contested. The run plays are not being executed well at all, even in defenses where they are NOT stacking the box.
Where are the crossing routes? The screens? The misdirection? It really disappeared week 2. Coaches have to do a much better job this week. Season feels like it is hinging on this game.
This is an outstanding point you make — as usual — but what many people forget is Green Bay, Tampa Bay, and the Rams have three of the best offensive lines in football and they all have competent offensive coordinators too. Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, and Matthew Stafford are in good hands. Joe Burrow is a sitting duck.
