The REAL Mismatch

He’s a smart QB but he needs to trust the play. These coaches have faced the Tampa 2 or Deep Cover 2 since jr high days as QB’s. Joe has not. But the OL is a problem in that they didn’t have the luxury to not give them more experience together in preseason. I would assume that falls on Zac’s naivety that the 3 new guys were vets and there not be issues.

Now the other problem is slow starts are a pattern with Joe. At some point you have to say he’s just a slow starter.

Slow starts are generally a result of a lack of preparation.  I don't think it's Joe Burrow that is not preparing.  The question is:  Is this coaching staff coming up with the appropriate game plans week in and week out?  Don't know.  Going back to last year the evidence suggest they are not.  They are making corrections and adjusting but you can't count on it every week to bail you out.
