Burrow needs to hand off alot...

game. Joe could most assuredly be a top back in the league with a decent O-line in front of him and used more like late in the year and more
in the passing game where he has great hands.

For the life of me I have never understood why we only run it with him to keep us more
predictable, he is a great pass catcher and he can make defenders miss and he can run over people and spin out of tackles unlike WR's.

I just don't want to see Jeremy Hill pt 2, where fans convince themselves "if only he gets 25-30 touches per game and has a good OL, he'd be a top RB!" I feel like that's where we are, though. A lot of the time RBs don't get large carries because they just are not doing that well. He actually had a game where he had 10 carries for 2 yards. You simply can't keep handing him the ball at that point.

I think it's because it's a well below average pass blocker. It's the same reason why he doesn't get playing time in the 2 minute drill. Also Zac Taylor's offense is garbage.
