Offensive line's pass protection.
Burrow can pick apart any defense if he has protection.
Our run game was 28th last year and somewhere around there in 2021 and both years we almost won the ship.
I used to say that the run sets up the pass and you need a strong run game, but, in the new NFL, especially with a quarterback like Burrow, the pass sets up the run, which the running game is a minor point anyways.
If teams are pass rushing their defensive linemen upfield and pass blitzing guys, then a running back has less troubles seeing the holes and running through their arm tackles.
Burrow will dominate if we give him time.
If our line protects Burrow, our offense can outscore any team in the NFL with a below-average run game and average defense.
