It allows him to see the coverage better and beat it. The Bengals decided to mix some of this in.  From what I've seen, every time he lines up in that formation with the Bengals he succeeds.  Needs to be 50% of our offense at least until proven unsuccessful

part of the problem in making that comparison is the defense at times was in prevent end of half or especially the last TD which really was the gift TD of just not allowing a quick score... In the NFL you are not going to live long if you stay empty.. I actually liked what Aikman said which is the total opposite... Burrow needs to be under center.. allows play action... I think a mix of both is good..
