They did an amazing job converting those down and distances, but I can't wait to see a 3rd and 2 where they just hand off Mixon behind Cappa and Collins and get an easy 4 yards. Of course, if safeties and LBs start cheating up (I bet we see more hard counts this year) then Joe will play action and throw over them.
They seem to know Joe's superpower is being able to read and diagnose quickly with multiple targets. We will see plenty of empty, or plenty of RBs chip and go out in a pattern.
My biggest concern right now isn't Volson at LG, but the health and ability with next to no hard practice time for Collins.
Burrow told Zac to take care of the pressure up the middle and he would take care of the pressure coming off the ends. We just need Volson, Cappa and Karras to hold the pocket.
