Doing his homework - pally - 10-01-2021
Joe is a 2nd year QB who doesn't wear the wristband to give him plays because....
Joe knows his playbook
Joe knows the tendency of the coaches on the opposing team
Joe audibles and throws for the 1st down that put the team into a game winning field goal position
and credit to Zac who gives Joe the freedom to audible...a lot of young QBs don't have that luxury
great soundbite
#Bengals QB Joe Burrow says he audibled for a screen to CJ Uzomah to set up the game-winner: “You guys have heard me talking about knowing the playbook in the back of my head... I know their defensive coordinator (Joe Cullen) has a Baltimore background." pic.twitter.com/dF1RxoRYxc

For some reason Joe was wearing the wristband last night:

I know ZT isn't winning anyone over, but that is a good last point. Not every coach would be comfortable with a QB who hasn't played a full season changing up plays, especially when the team is down.
Joe is doing outstanding. Hope his career is a long one.

There was a point in the game where I saw him ask for it and put it on on the sideline… not sure why though.

If he's not, it's because people refuse to admit they may be wrong

All I can think of is that it was a Thursday Night game and he didn't have the whole week to memorize the installs.

That was, what....his 14th start? He is amazing. Absolutely amazing. If you need more proof of where Burrow and Herbert are relative to their young QB peers, look at how the rookies are playing this season. And I don't want to hear how they are on bad teams. Joe's roster last year was a turd storm.

All I can think is that Primetime games have a much different feel with Burrow.

I had heard somewhere that the Bengals were 0-7 in their last 7 games against rookie quarterbacks. In the first half I figured it may be 0-8. But they didn't give up like old Bengal teams would have.
Watching the game with my wife, I told her on the final drive, for the first time in forever, I expect them to get a first down on 3rd and 4, 5, or 6. That must be what it feels like to be a Packers/Aaron Rodgers fan, you expect it and you also expect Rodgers to lead a game winning drive. I knew when they got the ball back with 5:40 left, they were going to score, and it felt so unusual to feel positive about the end of the game.

That's a false stat:
Just going back to 2017, we're 2-3, after the Texans game:
- Beat Kizer (twice)
- Lost to Trubisky (we lost to their defense, not to the QB) in 2017
- Lost to Minshew in 2019
- Lost to Tua last year.

I think he wore it against Pittsburgh too:

And Apparently against the Bears as well:

Looks like the only game he hasn't worn it at least some portion of the time was against Minnesota.
RE: Doing his homework - Au165 - 10-01-2021
FYI the wrist band isn't about "knowing the playbook" the wristband expedites the speed of the call. When Taylor radios in "36" Burrow looks down and calls the play next to 36. It doesn't tell him what to do or who to throw to, it is simply telling him the verbiage so he doesn't have to wait for the call and potentially miss a part of the call or need him to repeat the whole thing again.
The narrative that a wristband is some sort of cheat sheet is lazy.

Yes the first half felt all to familiar but that 2nd half was an absolute masterpiece. Man that was good to watch.
RE: Doing his homework - CincyKid - 10-01-2021
Tom Brady has worn a wristband every game of his HOF career

Hey if you don’t know how to do something, find someone who can.
Credit where credit is due.

Yeah, just a turrible 1st half. Hopefully Joe can fix this and start putting up at least 10 in the 1st half.

Truth! I was at the game and was quiet with a sense of dread till we stopped them on the goal line at the end of the first half. Gave me a cautious sense of hope looking forward to the second half.
Love the way you described it. It was truly a work of art on both sides of the ball. My voice was gone by the end of the game.

Joey B is great, he really is... look at what he has gone through. I truly hope he can bring this fanbase a superbowl win someday!

^This.
It's a smart thing to do. The coach can just call a number and if he has anything else to chime in, do it then instead of a long winded play call then nothing. It give the QB more time to call the play, get out of the huddle and made adjustments if necessary.
