That’s the next level of progression Burrow has to co to us taking.
At 1st he couldn’t beat the cover 2 because he was so used to taking big shots. He started getting more conservative last year and checking down and he became a better pro QB by doing that. Wether you score on a 4 min, 8 play drive or a 9 minute, 16 play drive makes no difference as long as you have more points than the other team after the time hits zero.
Burrow i think will take another step and be able to take more shots against the cover 2, and when he does that, teams won’t have anything to revert back to. Because they can’t go to a cover 4 shell. Welll run that to death with Mixon. They can’t run mostly man or cover 1 because we’ve now got 4 WR options i believe are above average and like 2 more that are great. Teams can’t sit in cover 3 because we’ll just destroy it by picking on the safety and going deep to whoever the safety doesn’t double.
Like if we can figure out the cover 2 the league is ******.
Only thing more dangerous than Burrow is Burrow with time in the pocket. We saw that at LSU and Joe gave us the best single season a QB ever had in college. He could do the same in the NFL
