For those that hate all the empty sets…

Besides which, he wasn't injured in empty.  Where is the outcry against shotgun/single back/trips right?

Check back with that stat after four more games. What was his ranking after 2 weeks? Do you think the loss of TJ Watt affected those numbers after week 3? How many of his hits were on an empty set?

Andrew Luck was only sacked 18 times in his final season. After the hits, knockdowns and sacks from the previous campaigns, he still couldn't get ready for the following year after an entire off-season of physical therapy/work outs. Since Burrow has already missed six games due to a major injury, I would like to think that they would try to protect him more, but this is Cincinnati and apparently they just go to war with what they have.

And they fixed the shotgun/single back/trips right after the outcry for Michael Jordan's release.
