Yahoo Sports NFL on Joe Burrow
From the article
"You're actually seeing him going through his progression," Lawrence said of Burrow. "Today I'm on a rush, I know I'm supposed to balance up. He steps up the other side and dots the ball down the middle. I'm like, 'OK, that's on me.' But it's little things like that help you feel better going against the quarterbacks like him."
STACKED’s take
Lawrence impressed by Burrow's progression reading and footwork in practice.
Lawrence praised quarterback Joe Burrow's ability to process the field and respond to defensive movement during practice. Lawrence noted that Burrow goes through his progressions effectively: "You're actually seeing him going through his progression. Today I'm on a rush, I know I'm supposed to balance up. He steps up the other side and dots the ball down the middle." Lawrence acknowledged that Burrow's quick decision-making and footwork are elite-level, saying "it's little things like that help you feel better going against the quarterbacks like him." The Bengals hope their upgraded defense, anchored by Lawrence, will still allow Burrow to operate effectively while reducing his need to "play hero ball" when the defense can contribute more to winning games.
