That is how it works, right?
The problem was the play call and Burrows throw. We used that fake multiple times in the Ravens game and multiple times today.
The defender knew exactly what we were doing as soon as Burrow faked the toss. Need to either add a different wrinkle to it or Burrow needs to adjust his throw. What makes Lamar, Murray, Mahomes, and Rodgers so deadly is their ability to throw the ball in multiple different ways. If Burrow does more of a side arm pass its likely a completion for a decent gain. Instead he throws it straight into the defender because he hasn't developed that skill yet.
