From the article

Joe Burrow played 'incredibly average.' That could be scary for AFC... Burrow told Geoff Hobson from Bengals.com. 'It feels like early on in 2021... We've got a really good defense, and try to stay in front of the sticks, not turn the ball over, kick field goals, put points on the board, we're going to win with our defense.'

Negative signalProjection

Burrow played average in Week 2; upside remains if offense blooms with defense.

Joe Burrow played 'incredibly average' in Week 2 against Houston, but the source suggests there is another level to this team where Burrow and the offense can get going and score big points while having the defense behind them. Burrow himself told Bengals.com that the team's strategy is to stay in front of the sticks, not turn the ball over, kick field goals, and put points on the board to win with the defense—mirroring the 2021 approach. The offense has not bloomed yet and mostly looked to avoid big mistakes.
