It's sad because it's possible that if Jones is a plug and play quality #4 and Smith Jr is injured again, that may be their best personnel on paper.
You have to run well out of it and the RB has to block, which is questionable with our guys. The threat of 4 guys being able to sit in zone or get open short, and Burrow's quick decisions should open running lanes. Don't be surprised if you don't see them use more of these looks with Brown at RB as the season progresses.
