Bad starts to seasons that got turned around. Bad losses from which they bounced back. I think we should have learned by now to not go over the top with comments based on one game or one half.
Bad halves yes. But bad start to seasons? I think we're singling out last year too much. 2 years ago we won the 1st game of the season. So Burrows 1st and 3rd seasons we lost the 1st game because of missed extra points. But maybe this game and our first half of games struggle have a common denominator. Zac Taylor? We don't scheme guys open or anything necessarily special for opponents. Burrow is supposed to read the defense and distribute the ball. Some games it might take him a while to do this and unfortunately he couldn't get it going this game. Our coaches on offense just don't offer much.
