HTPG Amazing Stats on Burrow

[Bengalstripes9]

Interesting stat. Coaching needs to get better for sure. I think they'll figure it out here soon. We are playing some amazing defensive lines, which makes it rough. The offensive line needs to improve as its hard to be successful when they are getting manhandled from the get go. With our skill players we just need to open more holes for Mixon and give Joe more time. The coaching needs to get better as far as coaching the lineman and scheming ways to protect burrow. Also, they need to attack more on offense. I see the defense attacking us every play. We need to be aggressive on offense and attack the defense's weaknesses. We can attack by scheming guys open for quick throws and by attacking the defense in the running game. We definitely need more shots up the seam. On passing plays we need two shallow routes on every play and two deep to intermediate routes. Burrow should have two dump off options on every play for quick slants or drag routes or what-have-you to get the receivers/backs going and get the drive started, even if Burrow has pressure in his face.

I think a major problem with this offense is the lack of 'drive starter' plays. The best teams have a lot of drive starter plays and from what I've seen the first couple weeks we haven't been able to scheme guys open for any drive starter plays. This definitely falls on the coaching. I would say the coaching and line play is what's holding us back so far. Yet, we could have won both games which goes to show you we are a good team.

Last year I thought we didn't do a good job of attacking a defense's weaknesses. We just play our game regardless of who we are playing. This is a flaw and we need to find other ways to win, based on how defenses are playing us.
