Burrow likes to have all five eligible receivers available in passing routes. When Cincinnati gives a tackle extra protection, that assistance generally goes to Orlando Brown Jr. on the left side, leaving Mims responsible for his assignment on the right.

Burrow's scheme relies on five-receiver availability; Mims' protection enables tight end and RB usage.

Burrow's offensive system is built around his ability to find open receivers and requires all five eligible receivers available in passing routes. The Bengals' pass protection scheme, anchored by Amarius Mims at right tackle, allows Burrow to avoid giving extra protection to Orlando Brown Jr. on the left side, freeing up tight ends and running backs as receiving options and giving Burrow additional targets to work with.
