Just zip it up, pal. Pack it up.
Pass Attempts is a poor measure for a number of reasons. First, the Bengals were 12th in ToP. If you have the ball more, you're going to run more plays, on average. Second, that number is inflated by the Bengals playing an extra quarter in Philly.
Second, you're claiming they ran more at the end of the year due to Burrow's injury, but fail to account for the team running less due to Joe Mixon's injury, which happened earlier in the year. Not to mention cold weather teams in open air stadiums tend to run the ball more often towards the end of the year.
