I expect this to translate to more deep shots and more receptions for all 3 WRs. When teams realize their defense of coming out in a 2 high shell and rolling the coverage to what they really want to run after the snap doesn’t work if Burrow has time teams will have to come out in what they actually want to run, allowing our guys to have 1 on 1s more often. Last year Jamarr and Tee could go whole quarters where the D simply did not leave him 1 on 1. I think with the playbook opened up and teams having to cover longer, we will EXPLODE. Even if the run game still sucks, simply getting that extra time to throw, with a full playbook at our disposal i do not see how we aren’t the best offense in the league.
Also Burrow learned how to dissect Defenses when they run the cover 2 last year. Sure seems like we are on the tipping point of
becoming that next great Offense if our OL can give Burrow some time and maybe have a decent running game. Really like Chase
Brown as a fit in this Offense, same with Irv Smith Jr if he can finally stay healthy.
I also believe we have been limited because of poor OL play as far as how much of a percentage of the Playbook can be used.
Should be a blast watching this Offense this year.
