I don't know how legitimate the calls were, but three, and big ones at that, is pretty significant. And the officials don't catch all of the holding.

I hope whatever is up with La'el gets resolved quickly.
Smith, along with Adeniji, looked bad last night.
I didn't see Gaillard doing much of anything.
Trey Hill was up and down from what I saw.
As a whole, the entire OL depth is pretty bad.
And starting LG isn't going to be that good either.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
