We have 3 players that have done anything of merit in the NFL:
Riley Reiff
Tyler Boyd
Joe "I'm hurt" Mixon
The rest are kids or journeymen
While a little harsh (Jonah has been very good, Uzo is solid, Burrow is really, really good) there is a lot of truth to this. But I see a lot of the same things in LA (Chargers) and their coach is dropping 40 burgers on teams on a weekly basis. He attacks with his best weapons. And he varies the pace.
For the love of God, though, can we come up with a play on 3rd or 4th and 1 or less that doesn't involve Burrow sneaking the ball. Gets pushed back every time. I would rather go empty with Mixon taking a direct snap and having one more player defenses have to account for as a true running threat or blocking.
