As you said, Burrow looked like a rookie QB in his 5th game.
The OL continues to severely disappoint, but many of the fans said the OL was going to be bad after their only move was bringing in XSF (who hasn't played since Week 1 due to injury).
Tate's not helping his cause with only 4 catches for 56 yards through 4 games. That's an average of 14 yards per game. Not going to cut it as a WR3. That 4.68 40 time seems very accurate when he's on the field. He's only able to make circus catches because he can't separate.
The only receivers worth a damn right now are Boyd and Higgins. Boyd on pace for 1150 yards, 3 TDs. Higgins on pace for about 700 yards, 6 TDs.
DBs continue to play well. LBs doing decent in coverage but need to defend the run better. DL needs to get more pressure.
Tate has only been targeted 6 times. 6. That’s 235th among all pass catchers in the NFL. Boyd has 40, AJ has 34 and Higgins has 30. His catch rate is 4 out of 6, give him 30 targets and he’d have 20 catches, Higgins has 16. AJ has 14. His only two non catches were those fades into the end zone, which is probably the least successful pass in the NFL.
