This past year he seemed to get thru it much quicker only the one game so the injuries may have prolonged in the previous two seasons and in 21' we may not have had that high of a bar for him being his 2nd season and coming back from knee surgery. But following people on Twitter it's been a common thread of is Burrow okay? He's not seeing the field properly and pulling the trigger when he normally does. To me this falls more on the coaches not gameplanning to help him out enough and just getting some preseason work although I realize that hasn't been possible some of these years. I certainly don't think we need to completely rethink our offseason training as I read Zacs words to be but as long as it's done smartly it shouldn't hurt.

All the more reason to have the starters playing a Quarter, at least two possessions in preseason games. Offense needs that "real feel" of game action, the OL definitely needs the reps for continuity and the defense obviously could use the work to get their asses on the same page.
