I agree our offense has been fine against the Chiefs but I'd still say we don't win any of those games if our defense doesn't play as well as they did specifically in the 2nd half of some of those games. I don't put much stock in the 3-1 record because it's in the past now. The NFL changes fast and we just lost half of our secondary. There's a chance we can be just as good or maybe better. But I think the more likely bet at least this year would be that we will be worse on the back end.
I agree about the back end. It’s a less than ideal situation. But let’s look at the positives. The OL I think is much improved. They did help us win 10 in a row. Orlando a definite upgrade. Volson has to take a nice jump after a rookie season. Karras and Cappa better chemistry. Hopefully the competition at RT spawns solid play.
I think another positive is Joe Burrow and a maturation process. He’ll be ready for the deep cover 2. I’m excited about our depth. If the OL finally arrives it’s gonna be tough to beat us.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
