If Burrow wasn't completing passes at an incredible rate then I would be concerned. This team is a passing team and that's just how they're going to move the ball.


He hasn't faced an SEC pass rush yet. I'd like to at least run well enough to keep those D linemen from coming out of the blocks like olympic sprinters

question for the gurus out there:

It's called a run-pass option. Are the linemen just pass-blocking every down (to avoid penalties on passing plays), and the QB decides to hand off if he thinks it's good?

If that's the case, that could explain the weak push we're seeing. The O Line would just be trying to tie up their man, not pancake him. And if that's what is happening, we need a back that can see the hole and hit it hard, and get through the initial arm contact he'd encounter (and of course, know his assignments in the passing game). Helaire is getting tied up at the line, not breaking out clean.
