The Ravens lead the league in sacks.

For some reason, Zac prefers to have Burrow drop back nearly every time to throw and minimally run.

And Burrow keeps getting hit until he's hurt.

Last night was a game to let Mixon rush for 160 yards and win.

I have slammed Zac as much as anyone but....

Burrow has waaaay more control over run and pass than ever before.

And many need to understand that the high number of horizontal pass and toss plays that we all hate are being called to due to the poor pass protection.  Those plays are supposed to slow the down rush.

I think we need to go all in on having the best oline - better players and better oline coach.  KC has proven that a SB can be won with a great oline and one great receiver.  If Burrow has time to throw the other WRs dont matter and if the oline opens holes the back doesnt really matter.
