Was it the right call in hindsight? No, it did not work. But, was it a great call to send a message to the offense and offensive line and rest of team, I trust you to execute and I want to win games, then yes.
The interesting part is in OT he is faced with a similar call, they don't make it, likely we lose the game. ZAC was gutsy, made the call and we kick a FG to win the game. It is hard to criticize the first call to put the game away earlier and then applaud the game winning call in my opinion.
Honestly, if it were me, I would punted both times. Glad it was not me making those calls.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
