I think we will see 3 WR, 1RB, & 1 TE 75%+ of the time. We will almost never go 2 RB, even in short yardage/goal line (which bugs me). We won't see 2 TEs much.
But I do think we will see a change in playcalling if the O-line is better. Longer developing plays. More 5 & 7 step drops, less 3 step. More longer developing plays. Burrow has been working on play-action stuff. If we can get a decent running game going, that is something we have not had in a while. Not saying he will become Boomer, but it is a new facet for us. Finally, I think we could see more 4 WR/5WR & more empty. Both because of the improved O-line and because WR's 4 & 5 are legitimate threats (if Jones & Iosivas hit).
I agree definitely. I’m no Bill Walsh or great X’s and O’s guy. But they love Mixon in the passing game. Could they motion out ( they do that some) and have Smith, Tee,Chase, Mixon, and Tyler in a 5WR set? There’s some matchup problems there and if a blitz he has a bail out receiver?
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
