Zac is referring to Burrow and demonstrating awareness of situational football with his reflections about the OT play calling. It is unfortunate you are struggling to do the same. During OT, the series of offensive plays leading to the FG resulted in the 49'ers getting the ball back and winning. Had Zac decided to immediately let Burrow take a shot at a TD, the result might have been a Bengals win without the 49'ers getting to control the outcome.
I don't want to read to much into a quote as I don't know if it was said right after the game or if he worded it correctly. But he says he " should have given Joe 2nd and 3rd down to get a Touchdown" which is correct that is a possibility but we were on the 26 we could of picked up a couple of 1st downs. Maybe that's nothing but it could speak to his mindset that you either score a TD or get the field goal. I would be curious to see that 3rd and 3 play and see what routes we ran. Because that line of thinking actually makes those last few plays make sense. If Taylor was thinking run twice get even closer for the field goal then take 1 shot at the endzone and if you don't get it kick the field goal. Not saying thats good logic if thats what he was thinking or that I agree with it because I don't but curious if thats what that quote is showing of his mindset.
