Interesting Burrow Comments...

[jj22]

I find this comment "interesting" because I feel it is all that is wrong with this Offense approach.

Thoughts?

Quote:"If we're in defensive battles, then you come out and you don't turn the ball over, you get the ball out of your hands, you play the field position game. If they're scoring, then you go try to make plays, and run around and do all those good things. I go into every single game ready to adapt to whatever the game needs for me to try to win."

Why does Zac's system always allow the opposing defense to set the tone. I wish he would not play what the defense gives him, but dictate to the defense what they need to play to cover the Offense.

This is an elite offense (supposedly) that should force the opposing Defense to defend them.... Not the other way around.

Why not "try to make plays, and run around and do all those good things" all the time and not just when the opposing team is scoring? I feel like this is why they take their foot off the pedal far too many times, or they play better from behind then they do when the score is 0-0.
