The run scheme inherently changes when they go under center. As in 64.5% pass before Burrow went out to 57.5% pass after. Pretty significant change. And if you drop that weird first Stealer game where they only ran 11 times the balance went to 56% pass 44% run. That is a lot different than the 64.5% to 35.5% they were doing before.
Didn’t say it didn’t change. Said they didn’t change the playbook. Used some stuff seldom used with Joe. Jake was more comfortable with play action and under center and using tight ends. Burrow is not. We’ve beat that dead horse to death. The bottom line for whatever reason the offensive staff and Zac who calls the plays has no confidence in the run game. Whether that’s the fault of Pollack, the OL, Mixon or whoever. It’s crystal clear to everyone on Planet Bengal. Hopefully Joe Burrow will be more receptive to under center. He hasn’t been his whole life. There’s not a coaching staff anywhere who caters more to crafting an offense to a QB’s strengths and preferences.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
