We passed out of shotgun 90% of the time and we ran from under center 90% of the time. If that's because of Zacs brilliant scheme then he needs to be fired or relieved of his playcalling duties. If it's a limitation of Burrow then he needs to practice throwing under center way more to get more comfortable. Either way both are on the coach. One more than the other obviously.
To be fair, this isn't unique to Cincinnati. From 2018 --> 2023, NFL teams have ran the ball 68% of the time from under center and only 28% from shotgun. Some rounding issues somewhere in there. Cincinnati under Zac Taylor, with Burrow at QB specifically, run the ball 69% of the time under center and 29% of the time from shotgun. That isn't the issue, Cincinnati is bang on with the NFL average in this very specific category.
