This morning I watched every sack Joe Burrow took in 2020 and assigned a primary cause

32% were coverage sacks
It's still terrible. Basically 1/3 of our sacks allowed were coverage sacks. In fairness, Joe should just throw these away instead of taking the hit and losing the yardage, but that's the other side of his competitive nature that he doesn't want to give up on plays.
But separation is overrated and/or our guys don't have trouble getting separation anyways.
