Just because we will open up the offense more later doesn't mean we should assume regular 7 sack games are on the horizon. 

Not necessarily saying that's what you were saying.

Bingo. That's not what I was meaning to imply.

But I'll be ok with an extra sack (or even two) a game if we're seeing 300+ yards passing on 40+ pass attempts.

Right now, Burrow is averaging 187 yards passing a game, but that's predominantly because of the stinky 82 yards passing against CLE.
Even if you take out that game, he's averaged 240 passing YPG across the other two games.

A big problem for him is the extremely uncharacteristic 55% completion.
Offense would have been churning a lot better if he was closer to his career average of 67%.
And also taking some deeper shots this whole time.
