Film Room: How the Bengals can be more explosive in their passing game

Despite the Bengals’ 0-2 start to the 2020 season, Joe Burrow has shown why he was worthy of the No. 1 overall pick. He has looked excellent in no huddle situations and has demonstrated the offensive mastery to effectively check the play at the line of scrimmage. However, there is one thing that is concerning.

Burrow’s 23-yard touchdown pass to C.J. Uzomah on Thursday night was not only his longest completion of the season, it was his only completion over 20 yards to date. Burrow was excellent on deep passes at LSU, but has only completed one of 12 attempts over 20 yards with the Bengals.
