Zac Taylor's Play Calling In OT Was Unforgivable

This is simple to understand.


Here are a few more things that are simple to understand.

-Joe Burrow is leading the league in interceptions and had earlier in this very game thrown a pass directly to a defender but it was wiped out by a penalty.

-Burrow had been sacked 3 times in his last 18 attempts.  A sack from the 22 could easily push the ball back to the 28.  That is the exact spot that McPherson had missed a FG attempt earlier in the game.

-The Bengals defense had been playing very well.  They had held the niners out of the endzone for the entire second half.  They were as haot if not hotter than Burrow.

-The numbers prove that it is easier to convert a third and 3 than a first and ten.  If Burrow was unstoppable throwing the ball then there is no way they should have stopped him from converting the third and three.  Zac did not "take the ball mout of his hands" instead he set him up for an easy conversion and let him throw for it.

And finally I see that you did not post the entire statement from Zac or a link to the entire statement.  That is because he did not admit he made a mistake like you are trying to claim.
