Worried About Burrow

[Joelist]

That Burrow was just standing there a lot and holding it too long was apparent - even the sportscasters noticed it. On one of the sacks he was in the stupid empty backfield and still just stood there for over 4 seconds with the ball. He had another one where it was in a different formation but the time between snap and him meeting the defender was 6 seconds.

Too much empty backfield, too much shotgun, no challenging the secondary, no screens, no draws, and if you are having issues with backs picking up the blitzed or free rusher then you go max protect - it is an actual NFL offensive concept. Go max protect and send Chase, Higgins and Boyd out deeper and challenge the secondary. Do this and hit and the defense has to back off a bit - the Bears had 8 or more defenders within 10 yards of the LOS virtually the whole game - that is BEGGING to get the top taken off but dopey Zac had other ideas...
