This team is fun

I wont credit Taylor for that its all Burrow.  He's a leader and he has the respect of the team in a way Dalton could never have.  I'm not trying to dump on Dalton; I liked him a lot but he didn't have what Burrow has.

He has a mental toughness, wants to win and doesn't fold when things aren't going his way.

Having some young guys around him that weren't part of the Lewis era is for the best.  I loved Gio and AJ, Atkins but it was time to start fresh.  The Bengals have some great new talent on D and we finally have really good LB that was desperately need.  We have one of the top safeties in the league and enough talent across the D line that we don't need one guy to care them by himself (Atkins).  Of course this team is stacked with talent on offense.

I'm not under some delusion that this is going to make a deep playoff run or even make it to the playoffs this season (I would be surprised if they did though) but the future looks bright.  This could be the best Bengals team we've seen in a long, long time.

Im not old on Taylor.  I hope he starts to make some better choices, we'll see.  And despite the success of the last 2 games on not sold on the O line either.  Fix those 2 things and this team is a contender with anyone in the league.

You just don't want to admit you may have been wrong about Taylor. Burrow, for all his command as a leader, did not draft almost nothing but Captains and leaders, and did not bring in major players from organizations with winning traditions to stock the locker room with that mentality. Taylor get a whole lot of credit for changing the culture around here.
