Burrow at peak efficiency; Ravens' weak pass rush favors him.

Joe BurrowQBCIN

Despite two interceptions in the last game (one tipped, one a misjudgment), Burrow was the most efficient he's been all year at 80th percentile EPA per play and 92nd percentile success rate. He was well protected last week, which is important given the Bengals' typical offensive line issues. The Ravens have no pass rush answers since losing Mad, ranking 29th in pressure rate, so Burrow will have time to throw and should be better than his Thanksgiving game against the Ravens when he was solid but in his first game back from injury. Burrow's efficiency is directly tied to Higgins' availability; when Higgins played last year and returned recently, Burrow's efficiency spiked noticeably. In his first game back with Higgins, Burrow threw the ball heavily but struggled with pass attempt efficiency (under 6 yards per attempt in the first half), though this may have been rust.
