The key to this was hitting FAR more often than not on those free agents. Not having bad contracts or a ton of dead money made this a sustainable build rather than a sell out and rebuild.
There’s definitely a lot more to the story than Joe and Chase.
I’ll rank them:
1. Burrow
2. Solid drafting besides just Chase including character
3. Free Agency success including character
4. The culture and instilling confidence
5. The coaching staff
6. Ownership cooperation
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.
