I believe Burrow is the real deal, and I'm betting most of the national media would too if they cared to look and report on it.  But the national media doesn't care because the general public doesn't care about the Bengals or Burrow.

Staley: Successful coordinator in the NFL
Taylor: Unsuccessful coordinator in college; NFL - Helped develop an overrated QB that was traded for another overrated QB this offseason.

QB they are about even considering they have the reigning offensive rookie of the year.  The Chargers in the off season rebuilt their offensive line so Herbert doesn't get touched and has time to hit his WR.  

The Chargers have one of the best defenses in the NFL led by Joey Bosa.   Ours is led by???? Hendrickson?  Hubbard?????

Anyway, then you take this young new coach who has been a defensive coordinator in the NFL.  He actually coordinated defenses...made the calls.  Had one of the best defenses in the NFL.   Compare that to Zac of being a QB coach.  Yea he coached up what's his face with the Detroit Lions now.  

I'd take Staley too.  The dude again lead one of the best defense in the league.  Called the defense.  Put players in position to succeed.  

What has Zac done?  What did he do prior to coming to Cincinnati?  Just sayin.  This isnt an apples to apples comparison.  This is more like Apples to Oranges.

Go to Youtube and type in "Joe Burrow" or "Cincinnati Bengals". 

Plenty there.

(06-20-2021, 07:36 PM)SunsetBengal Wrote: Bingo.  The Chargers made improving the OL priority #1, so that their young QB might be able to play more easily.  The Bengals, took the route of adding another weapon, and putting OL in the backseat of their priority list.

Generally speaking, which strategy typically yields better results?
