I can this entire team blowing up and having a meltdown. Tee is gone, im not sure Chase will resign and I can see a scenario where Burrow wants out, and I cant blame him. Is there a chance Burrow goes to the front office demanding change and anything happens???? Coaches being fired, Zac giving up play calling, etc.

On one hand, we've seen Mims, Trent Brown, OBJ, and Karras play ok. Those 4 have allowed 6 sacks combined.
But Cappa and Volson have allowed 7 combined.
Bengals have gotten nothing from the likes of D'Ante Smith, Jackson Carman, Trey Hill, showing Pollack has not been able to turn water into wine.
Volson's into his 4th year and still playing inconsistent at times and downright getting destroyed other times.

After Hobby, Pollack would be the next on my list.

EVERY good play was because Joe Audibled out of a play play call by Zac

EVERY bad play was because Zac did not allow Joe to audible

Zac did'nt do anything different in the Super Bowl knowing our line could'nt block Aaron Donald, we lost because he trusted bad players to make a play. What's that say about his decision making?

They didn't care that Zac doesn't preach fundamental football, they wanted flash and bodies in the stadium. It's no great mystery as to why nobody wanted to be Zac's DC, and do you really think that a truly good OL coach will want to work with a guy who sees the running game as an afterthought?

I think they caught lightning in a bottle with there FA for a couple years and now it has all slipped away. I don't think it matters how many games we win or lose I don't think the organization will feel any urgency because we have Burrow and that's enough to keep up hopes that maybe we can turn it around year to year. I know it's the Not For Long league but it still amazes me how quickly things crumble.

I believe ZT is guilty of, at many times, out thinking himself. On the now famous Eagles game 3rd and a foot and botched 4th and 1 to Chase.

Why try a trick? Why ponder it? You can hear JB yelling can-can before the Moss run on 3rd down. Why not just take a page out of the T. Brady playbook? break the huddle and go to the LOS and go for the instant catch em off guard sneak. It's a friggin foot away and in the mass of bodies very hard to say he didn't get it.

What was the play Joe canned? Why did he have Chase running all over the field telegraphing what was about to happen.

If you watch the 4th and 1 play that ended the game, it was a breakdown by Hopkins the center, he was uncovered and did not drop back enough to help on a double of Donald, he was too late .. if he does a proper drop , Joe will get that ball off.
