Why is this offense so bad?

[Whatever]

Joe Burrow, Joe Mixon, Jamar Chase, Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd...teams would kill for that kind of personal.

This team should be putting up 30 plus points a game and here we are heaving the ball down field blindly to Jamar to get any kind of scoring going.

In tired of the all or nothing crap with this team. Where's the 15 yard chunk plays? Where's the screens? Where's the creativity? The decent scheming?

I'm just tired of it. I feel like this offense has so much more to offer and can be so much more explosive. Something's missing. Scoring for this team feels like it's just such a struggle.

It's a variety of little things that are adding up, in my view.

RB's can't be trusted to pick up blitzers. Joe Mixon cheats out into his routes early instead of selling the screen or helping to chip, then releasing.

OL is serviceable, but not good yet.

Designed plays to guys that do not need to be getting desiith gned touches(Drew Sample, Auden Tate).

Lack of speed at the skill positions excepting Chase.

Suspect situational play calling.

Playing to the defense when on offense.  For example, the team moves the ball a lot better when up tempo.  However, they would rather slow it down and go 3 and out than have an 8 play drive with tempo.

4 picks this year trying to get the ball to Tyler Boyd.

Targets distributed amongst the top 3 WR's as if we're trying not to hurt anyone's feelings.  Tee and Boyd are good players.  Chase is a great player.
