Pretty much sums up some of the frustration on this board in terms of the vanilla playcalling on offense.
Normally when national media head down this path i tune out of the Bengals bashing, but Simms has been a consistent Bengals and Burrow / Chase cheerleader and the way he breaks down the predictability of the route running rings pretty true for me.
Time to go crazy Zac/Brian
Iv been saying Chase needs to be in motion almost every play. I feel like the last 2 games Iv been beating that drum
Chris also brought up using bunch formations more. Burrow must not like bunches. The Tee, Boyd, Hurst bunch with Chase by himself on the other side should be a staple of this offense.
As a defense how do you guard that and at the same time dedicate a safety to Chase 90% of the time?
Also Chris hit on how Chase is being left one on one ALOT. The safety is on him most plays but there are a surprising number of plays where Chase was one on one and but they showed a safety over top and when Burrow sees that safety, he just doesn’t even look Chase’s way and that’s not smart
