re: Marshall was Burrow's favorite target, before injury

Marshall will no doubt be a huge player, but I think Burrow spread it out pretty evenly.
Marshall got injured Week 4 vs Vanderbilt; Chase did not play vs NW State on Week 3, thru Week 3:
Jefferson 19 Rec, 374 yards, 4 TD (3 Games)
Chase 10 Rec, 168 yards, 2 TD (2 Games)
Marshall 16 Rec, 229 yards, 4 TD (3 Games)

Here are the targets through the Vandy game (Marshall played almost entire game IIRC):
Jefferson - 25 targets
Chase - 25 targets (missed 1 out first 4 games though)
Marshall - 26 targets
Which was my point that Burrow wasn't favoring Marshall before his injury, he was really spreading the ball around quite well between them.
From the Auburn game to end of season though (they all played in every game):
Jefferson - 80 targets
Chase - 73 targets
MArshall - 40 targets
Marshall significantly dropped off, which was to be expected with how comfortable Burrow got with Chase/Jefferson and Marshall clearly wasn't 100% when he did come back either. He didnt break 50 yards receiving in any game till UGA. He was a redzone monster at the end of the season though with 5 TD in the final 3 games, similar to his start of 6 TD the first 3 games of season.

Burrow went to Jefferson early. Because of 2018. And Jefferson had A big amount of over the middle routes. As defenses adjusted to take away Jefferson... Chase broke out. And defenses tried to adjust. At the end of the day our WRs could not be guarded Man to Man. Some tried. Marshall always was a target. He had a huge catch against Georgia in 2018. Then got back in the rotation In 2020 after injury against zone coverage.
Anyway the point is well taken... Marshall will have a really good year.
