Zac Taylor

Up until the injuries a few games ago, I've never felt Zac did a good job adjusting his playcalls to the personnel on the field. He's had a vision since day 1, but it wasn't run successfully unless it was the right team on the field to make it happen. That's my personal opinion. That said, I've been nothing but impressed with how they've adjusted and gotten all of the guys on the field active and kept things going, not in a "serviceable" sense, but scoring consistently and easily, and I am happy to give Zac credit for that.

Were the struggles in part because Burrow might have been forcing it to Chase? Was it because the OL was playing terribly? Maybe to both. But the adjustment to the blocking scheme and the personnel variety recently have impressed me, and I'm loving what I'm seeing from this offense right now. Getting Chase back at 100% and getting Mixon back for this last stretch of games and the playoffs is massive. Especially since they've been successful without either, having them back should make them more potent than ever. I'm excited to watch things play out from here.

I also think there are going to be head-scratchers in any game. Go for it or don't. Run a wide backfield play or up the gut. It's easy to armchair it, but I'd rather discuss a play or two on Mondays vs an entire drive or several drives. So he's definitely got things in a great place right now.
