I for one can't wait to see more, and I think what we haven't yet seen is where Chase catches a pass and breaks a few tackles to run it all the way to the end zone. It's coming.
In any case, Vikings defense is no joke and the o-line gave up 2 (hopkins... CENTER) so there should effectively be 0% regret over Chase as it stands. Our tackle play was excellent, and I for one LOVED seeing our IOL get out there in space and hit people.
This will be a fun year.
That one deep shot should set the tone moving forward. Teams will start to respect that, and it'll open things up underneath. Can't imagine what Burrow's completion rate could look like if that's how it plays out. Wasn't he 17/20 before his ankle tweak yesterday?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
