Burrows stats are actually crazy

We help reduce our liability of the offensive line by letting them fire off instead of retreat.  Even with around 3 ypc, they are facing very manageable 3rd and 4 instead of Burrow-killing 3rd and 10 or worse.  They are having success throwing the ball, but I think they would have more success throwing if there was more balance.  A 5 YPA number in the passing game is dead last in the league.  

You could be right about Redmond, but I am hoping he finally realizes this is his last shot and he makes a significant contribution.  We keep saying it:  He only needs to be average, and not horrible.
