The #1 reason for Chase's lack of targets is on Joe Burrow.
Not that Joe is doing anything bad, but he is NOT going to throw to a double covered or heavily bracketed receiver. Joe relishes in making the right decision to counter the defense's plan. Joe can process faster than most. He doesnt have to force feed Chase like they have Jefferson.
That said, would I like to see us scheme some deep crossers, more routes for Chase from the slot, more bunch formations? Absolutely, but Zac hasnt been overly aggressive with these.
It is beyond comical to suggest a ROY starting his 4th season has peaked.
