Probably Joe Burrow himself!
While a “pitch count” of 25 attempts might be low I do wish to point out at LSU when Joe had his best games in terms of rating and touchdown passes he threw between 25 and 35 passes.
Sometimes we forget Joe had the rushing attack of Clyde Edwards-Helaire to complement his passing prowess. Similarly, Joe Mixon provides the same rushing attack potential so if Zac Taylor truly wants to recreate the LSU offense to any degree he’ll have to get Mixon involved a lot too.
