Unless you are killing the clock down to less than 30 seconds, it honestly doesn't matter. There's a ton more value in just gambling and throwing the ball and picking up first downs. All teams need to drive down the field these days and be in field goal range is about 30 seconds. I loved the call to pass the ball on 3rd and 11 and try to close out the game last Sunday.
Also, that play was on Burrow. ZT said he gives Joe 3 plays and that was Joe's ultimate decision to pass to try and pick up that 3rd down. It was actually the exact same play they ran against the Rams that the lost the Super Bowl on.
The play clock starts at 40 seconds. They’ve got 25 seconds to come up with a play and give it to Joe. I’d assume the last 10 seconds is when they give it to him. Normally Zac gives him 2 based on the coverages and possibly a run play or pass play. In this instance they discussed two he dismissed and he liked the third.
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.
