I’m not saying go balls to the walls and throw ever play because that doesn’t work, either. You’ll just let defenses pin their ears back on you.
You do, generally, want to be passing more than you run because passing is objectively better. Especially when you have a stinky run game (Bengals) and an elite passing game (Bengals).
But more bad things can go wrong when you pass more than run. It is a good argument but I think my logic holds true.
I know Burrow loves his empty sets but that is when he gets hit the most.
