1a Burrow taking the snaps from under center. It gives the defense a lot less time to react and make a decision to commit to stopping the run.
1b It also allows the backs to hit the hole faster.
2 We'll run the ball more, making us less predictable.
3 Burrow being healthy means a lot better passing game, which means that defenses can't load the box and they'll have less time to react.
4 We have better linemen- Both Browns at tackle (and Mims), and Burrow under center will help the run game and prevent the defense from just teeing off on the pass rush.
