Even if Chase is fully prepared to make a contested catch in double coverage, Burrow is probably not going to throw the ball in that direction if Higgins is streaking deep in single coverage or Boyd is wide open for a first down. I believe we have a quarterback and a playcaller who, by virtue of their styles and philosophies, will make it a little harder for any one player to continually blow up the stat sheet. That's a good thing for the team, and if our receivers are who we think they are then they'll be happy about it too.
I was gonna say this. There is no need to force feed him when you’ve got Higgins, Boyd, Uzomah, Tate, and a solid run game. A lot of those amazing AJ catches over the years we’re technically bad throws, that he just caught cause he was amazing.
