The chiefs have won games with backup qbs without Mahomes.
The ravens made the playoffs with a scrub qb last year, and almost beat us in the playoffs as well.
Good coaches can still salvage a playoff birth with a backup qb.
The Bengals have invested a lot in the oline and have a lot of weapons on offense. Good coaching should allow them to make the playoffs and likely lose in the first round. Do I expect that to happen? No.
What I expect to happen is watching the 9ers vs ravens in the Super Bowl and hopefully the bengals reevaluate what winning football looks like.
Excellent post! A good coach should win with the talent on this team. Zak is not a good coach. However, this organization is too loyal with having low expectations defining successful season such as Marvin Lewis never winning a playoff game or the Piano Man over extended his stay after 20 years. We, as fan, should be pissed the organization has let us down. They have money under the cap. What are they going to do with it?
We are stuck with Dave Shula part 2 for the next three years. I pray Joe stays healthy and we don’t have to count on Zak to do too much like this season.
