But he struggles to trust the process and read the defense. He takes way too many checkdowns, gives up on routes and drops his eyes way too early, once he drops his eyes and starts too scramble he doesn't get his head back up. Burrow super power is reading the defense and get the ball out accurately. But another one is his trust of the process as when he gets pressure trust that the lineman will continue to work and he can evade and keep his eyes down field.
Outside of more preseason work as we never no about injuries as something may occur that makes that impossible. I think we need to make the run game a priority and come up with more schemes plays those first couple of weeks. I think Zac comes up with good route concepts but beyond that it's on Burrow to make the plays and it works well when he is himself but we need to lessen the pressure on him early.
I think now that Zac has trust in Chase Brown, we will see more games involving more of the run.
