Burrow is forced to throw in the redzone with Mixon and this line unable to convert 1 yard gains on 3rd or 4th down. People are afraid of Chubb, with good reason. I'm not excusing Burrow for his poor play, but Mayfield only has to throw the ball a handful of times a game. He had 6 TDs through 7 games.
When the other team knows we have to throw, they can get pressure on us, and our line isn't good enough to withstand that.
I do think when they showed Mixon with that "no way" look on the 2 pt conversion, before they attempted it, he knew what the playcall was and there was no way it was going to work - lol.
