The 2 minute offense is a huge strength, and the "middle 8" of the last four minutes of a half and the first four after a half have been incredible.
The aggressiveness on 4th down.
The culture of guys from winning teams with captain backgrounds. Zero turds.
That he protected Burrow early in the season and still had a good record.
Creative play design.
Attitude despite a ton of issues early on. You never see the guy down.
Things I wish Taylor did better:
Run scheme needs to be either changed to personnel or personnel needs improved.
Scripted plays need to improve, but have looked better the last two weeks
Deep routes for players other than Chase.
In summary, I overall like the guy. Anarumo had a two game horrible slide, but called a great game in Vegas. I hope he rolls out more of Mixon and Evans down the stretch. The only thing this offense is missing is a reliable run game.
I agree with you Racer. I was critical of ZT like most but I’ve actually found myself defending him this season. I think he’s done a good job. In a perfect world, I’d like to have an OC who handles the playcalling but he hasn’t been bad there, either.
