all hobbled up and we lost by 3 points. This is what gives me hope going into this one. Burrow is healthy and we barely lost when
he was a shadow of himself. Not having Sam Hubbard to spy Lamar though will keep it close as Lamar should run for a lot, just
hopefully not Tuddy's.
Well, that's the slight nuance that makes their defense so difficult. While technically a lot of their defensive plays get charted as a blitz because they are bringing a slot or LB, they are still usually dropping 7 people into coverage and usually only bringing 4. They just make it look/feel like they are bringing more which causes the confusion up front.
I think Burrow will play fine, but I'm more concerned about his play than the offensive line tonight. He hasn't been very good in his 3 games vs. Mcdonald.
