With a better DC, some slightly better play calling? Who knows.

Right, I was the one saying we could even move on from ZT after the 2019 season if Burrow was such an amazing prospect that we could use him to lure in a decent HC.  I just can't help but shake the feeling that Burrow isn't enough to offset the no GM, stagnant ownership style, and other "that's just the Bengal way" stuff that must plague the NFL job market.

When we move on from ZT I'll have some optimism we can lure someone much better in, but next year there is going to be a team that can use Trevor Lawrence to lure in a HC and every year there will be a new franchise that is more desperate to hand over power to coaches and GMs.  I'm not saying that's going to lead to success, but even with Burrow it's hard to look at our coaching in the Mike Brown era and get optimistic that victory is over the next hill.  Oof.
