RE: Joe Burrow out for the season with torn ligament - CJD - 11-17-2023
Okay, silver lining time. Strap in:
1. Lou won't be poached this off season because there's no way our defense makes up for the weakness of our offense.
2. A 4th place schedule is a fantastic way to start a Super Bowl run in 2024.
3. Joe Burrow should (once again) be fully healthy going into training camp. I imagine it does not take 8 months to recover from this injury.
4. We'll have a premium draft pick slot in the draft, meaning we can fill some big holes on this team, depending on our free agency.
5. Our free agents like Tee Higgins and Jonah Williams may not get huge money from other teams since the offense is going to struggle mightily for the next 7 games. This means we should have a better chance at re-signing them.
6. The Browns are going to get significantly weaker next season, as Deshaun Watson's cap hit goes from 19M to a whopping 64M next year. They'll probably try to push that cap down the line a little bit, but they don't have very much room left, as 2025 and 2026 are also 64M cap hits and they've already pushed 9M into a void year in 2027.
7. The Super Bowl for the 2024 NFL season (in February 2025) is in New Orleans. It'll be poetic when Joe Burrow wins in the same area that he won his Heisman.
2024 will be a better year for us. We were already on the ropes with our 1-3 start and the last 2 games were putting us in jeopardy of missing the playoffs even if Joe only missed 1 or 2 games. I think it's for the best that we just tank this season out, get a good draft pick and reset in preparation for a clean start in 2024. Hopefully, this time with Burrow having a full, healthy training camp and starting the season strong for once.

Zac Taylor on concerns over the physical, mental toll: "If he were a normal human being, you'd worry about it. He's not. He'd wired differently."
If I was old man Mike hearing that after the investment he’s put in Joe I’d be firing the ***** idiot on the spot.
Just because Joe is different doesn’t make it ok to take this type of punishment he’s going to end up like Luck.

#1- Frank Pollack needs let go. We gotta try something different to improve the OL.
#2- Brock Bowers time maybe?

I'll admit I'm at least interested to see if ZT has really progressed from his past self which lost a whole bunch without Burrow under center. If we can't win more than a game or two without Burrow, I'd be for canning the coaching staff even though we know nothing like that would happen.
There are many NFL teams this year that are down to, or have had to use 2nd or 3rd string QBs and if we finish below most of them...well, that's a bad look. We are even .500 right now, so the evaluation period begins.

It's November. This likely knocks him out of another Training camp, and well... her comes 0-2 in 2024....

Tanking is a loser's attitude and one the Bengals should never take.
That said, they are going to lose plenty trying to win anyway. I'll guess they end up 6-11.

Let's give Browning a chance to succeed. We know Burrow is out and we need to rally for the backup.

God help us if we tank naturally or intentionally and the NFL decides to take our pick for being deceptive about Burrow's wrist going into the game.

Agree with all points, plus it gets Browning some valuable experience.

This is how the Bengals rebuild. Every couple years you take a hit and get two top 40 picks.
On the upside, there is no more anxiety for the season. Zero expectations. Each loss is a better draft pick. Enough losses and maybe we can trade up for MH Jr.
