And Waynes never even existed.
It is getting funny to see how deep you can stick your head in the sand.
"That was Zac Taylor from 2 years ago. There is no way you can connect him to the current team."
Yes Zac inherited some old players prone to injury. ZT is not the GM, the reality is the FO had poor drafts the few years prior to ZT's arrival. ZT does what good coaches do once they have a year with their roster, worked with Tobin to develop a better roster. In year 1, ZT did not have the luxury of knowing the team he inherited enough to change it. AJ was injured as well and most did not anticipate that happening.
An old saying, you can't fix the past. ZT can hopefully get better through experience every year. His legacy will be the future, not the past.
As for Burrow, I heard he was running and throwing prior to the game Friday night which is a great sign he will be back sooner than later in my opinion.
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.
