When you break it down into percentages, Cincinnati is nearly dead on league average. Across the NFL, teams run the ball roughly 70% of the time when they go under center. Cincinnati is exactly at 70%. In shotgun, the NFL runs 30% of the time. Cincinnati runs 29% of the time. You have slightly different numbers than I do but the story should be the same across the NFL. 

The "Under Center" became a thing only because Joe Burrow could not do it at all the first 4 weeks. We forget to mention during that span the average depth of target was around 3 yards. It was a super limiting offense because Burrow could not put any pressure on that calf.
