Even the OL that was so bad last year, I never saw Burrow complaining during a game or causing dissention by blasting them for not protecting him. He didn't yell at Boyd when he dropped the TD pass or scream at Samaje Perine when he went the wrong way when the blocking was set up on the other side. He didn't blast his coaches for playcalls. He always shows class and doesn't show up his teammates.
The camera will catch Burrow in a closeup show some momentary surprise after some plays. But it is always momentary. He displays class and doesn't denigrate the play of his teammates.
I'm glad Chase said what he said. He shows maturity. He basically acknowledges Burrow takes the higher rode as a teammate, while saying we're a team, we don't show up one another or cause dissention. Errors will always be made. We support each other even when the errors are made.
I love this team.
Yes, after Boyd dropped the easy touchdown, Burrow's face went from shock to a grin. They asked Joe about WR's dropping passes last year and he was asked if he ever says anything to them about it. His response was "No, I don't need to say anything to them, they know they dropped it!" Joe is not going to kick them when they are down, so to speak, because it does no one any good. In fact, Joe will probably go right back to them so they can make a catch and move past the drop. I like Brady, but he's a Prima Donna and yells at his teammates like a jerk. There was only 1 player on the Bucs who was "too busy" to attend training camp, and it wasn't any of his receivers.
