We didn't overpay CJ and replaced him with a team friendly deal by signing Hurst. The two FA signings for the OL are huge (I'll feel better when Cappa is signed, sealed, and delivered). Tonight, we have a chance at Collins. I'm enjoying this and excited.
There’s only a few teams that have really improved themselves that are relevant. KC is about the same as their secondary may suffer. GB is weaker w/o Adams. Tampa isn’t stronger that’s for sure. Dallas is worse. Buffalo minimally better. Denver is and the Raiders and the Chargers. But if the Bengals get Collins they’ve improved as much as anybody because they’ve not lost but one starter and the replacement is equal.
And the intangibles? Burrow’s gaining experience, his momentum in continuity with the receivers and the offense and Zac/Brian, the defense’s continuity and second year together, and finally the continuity and learning curve of Zac and the staff.
And this and I’ve been preaching this non stop. With a run game this offense will hit another gear(s).
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
