The problem was the lack of touchdowns and redzone failures

This post points out that LSU was in the top-3 of the entire Power-5 in INTs given up. That is significant.

Redzone/scoring was more of a symptom of inexperienced WRs, injured O-Line, QB with minimal team reps, etc.

All in all, the '18 offense performed admirably, and the '19 looks explosive. (and #6 final AP is STRONG nothing to sneeze at)

That is a different issue and not directly related to the topic of the post.

Specific to this - would it make you feel better if he was farther down on the list?

The Scoreboard is all-knowing. Joe Burrow is a terrific competitor and a great guy.... but an average Quarterback.

I'm with you on Red Zone percentage, but not on TDs. I'm pretty sure Joe had at least 5 deep connections when the guy stepped out at the 1 and then Brossette plunged in on the next play. He also has 7 rushing TDs. But yeah - the red zone offense has to be better if we want to go 11-1 like people are saying
