We have Burrow and Mixon as the faces of our franchise and free agents/draft picks/potential trade candidates could look at it and see that we're a team that's trending up and is committed to winning.
I realize that we still have a lot of flaws in our organization (i.e. no practice bubble, training facility, etc), and I also realize that money rules everything, but do you think our team could start being a desirable destination?
I also realize that Cincinnati isn't the most desirable city, but is that something that can also be ignored to want to play here?
Yeah, Burrow alone makes players excited to come here. Dude had the greatest season for a QB in college football history
and followed it up with record breaking yardage stats before he went down with injury and did it behind a sieve of an OL.
My hope is the coaches, namely Zac and Lou improve big time. They can, it is not impossible. Zac is young and Lou is only
in his 3rd year as a DC and has had tons of injuries on his side of the ball. Have to start winning games though and most
notably the close ones as we just lose them under Zac. We start winning the close ones and things will start to look up.
Losing close games is a sign of bad coaching.
The Chiefs won all their close games last year pretty much while we lost them all.
