To me, it sounds like we're taking steps to fix both those problems. Line changes and utilizing the run would've done wonders for our offense.
For any QB.
If you look at the 9 full games he played and put that to 16 games, he was on pace to throw 658 passes. That would have tied for 12th most all time.
Now if you look at the fact that Burrow threw 29 passes in the first half of the Washington game, that would be a 58 pass full game. If you work that into his stats for the 10th game, the pace it would then be is 685 passes in a 16 game season. 685 passes in a season would be the 3rd most in NFL history.
That's just too much passing be it a rookie or not.
The Top-10 most passing attempt seasons include only 3 playoff teams, and 0 playoff wins. It's not a real recipe for success.
