Burrow admitted his struggles to start the season comes from a slowed down release clock in his head that causes timing issues in the offense. He believes that preseason live action with the threat of being hit will help speed his internal clock up and be ready for the season.
I'd just like to point out that Zac's prior preseason plan isn't bad at all. Take the Steelers for example. They play a lot of their starters in the preseason and come out firing on all cylinders to start the season. But by November they have nothing left in the tank and look like it. No energy, no physicality... It's led to them ending the season on long losing streaks.
So there is a happy medium. All the great teams (NE, KC) lose their games (if they lose) in September before going on 10 game winning streaks. Teams knew if you wanted to catch them sleeping your bests shot was at the start of the season. We can't start 0-3, or 1-3, but great teams have suffered losses (some bad) to start the season if it means ending the season strong.
