Serious question: has anyone offered up an explanation for why Burrow has so many balls batted down at the line of scrimmage? He must be averaging 3-4 a game. He's listed as 6'4" so height isn't the issue.
I think a big factor is that he doesn't drop back as far in the pocket so closer to lineman makes it harder to get it up and over the DL.
Okay, so that begs the next question....why doesn't he drop back further?

I believe they want to get the ball out quicker so they don't drop back as far.

Yes, that was my thought as well. I guess they'd rather have the batted balls than the sacks.

I'm hearing a few weeks, not several.
He apparently broke his wrist in the first half and played with it the rest of the game.

This question was brought up in the post game press conference and he stated teams are actually playing for that now. Not really sure how that works honestly but seems like they're trying to focus on that.

I assume that means D-linemen are rushing with their arms or hands up deliberately looking to block the throw.

Tackles are not good enough.
