Burrow is the general out there. If you don't like how much we run or think Burrow passes too much, that's just as much (or if not more) on JB than ZT.
All true. But Taylor's very 1st game ad our head coach. Coming into the season the prior year our defense was trash, Dalton was (not really sure what yo say) good but with limitations I guess and we had the #4 running back in the NFL and 2nd in YPC at 4.9. What was are strategy going into Seattle week 1 with AJ Green out as well? To run it 15 times and have Dalton throw it 51 times. 51!!! Now Mixon had 6 of those carries for only 10 yards so it would be fair to say that we couldn't run so we had to throw. But Mixon had several of those terrible games the 1st half of the season only to be the 2nd best back in the league the 2nd half. So it would seem we changed something scheme or otherwise. So in games where we struggle to run now I have to wonder what the underlying issues are. My point is regardless of QB Taylor's offenses are consistently 2 to 1 throw vs pass.
