Anyways, you seem to be missing what I'm driving at in your sensitivity to perceived Burrow criticism, which is...


This is what I'm trying to drive at. How do we have 3 quality receivers who are inarguably better than Herbert's, yet our guys struggle to get open, while Herbert's guys were WIDE open.

IMO, it's scheme above all else. We're not fooling anyone. Chase shouldn't be completely shut down just by shading a safety in his direction...and if he is, why can't we find a way around that?

Scheme matters. And insofar as many of us disagree about who Burrow is and who is better between him and Herbert, I think we can all agree Burrow has a dork for a head coach/play caller. If he had a good scheme, he may well be a lot better than he is right now. No guarantee, but it’s not implausible. Taylor is horrifying.
