Oh, absolutely that's some of it. I'm not sure if he'll manage, though. That's not a minor mechanic or anything, that's a whole set of instincts and a mentality. That's much harder to change and it seems like a lot of QBs never do. Not a knock on Burrow, just an acceptance that it's hard to change something that integral to your mindset/game. Luck was never able to do it and it cost him his career. Combine that with an iffy OL and HC/OC, and a ton of pass attempts.. not sure there's going to be a big drop in sacks.
