I'm just a firm believer in the fact we have to get much, much better at running the ball, have too!!! For Chase and Burrow and Co. to really shine in the passing game.
All of the above.
Plus you have to commit to it. The Bengals don't seem interested in committing to it and would rather use the short pass game as an extension of the run.
And the short pass game as an extension of the run has worked at times. Defenses continue to press to defend quick passes and then we take them over the top. We did it multiple times this year with fake bubble screens to Chase.
The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy
