Yep, I second the motion for Kromer.
This makes me happy lol
So true how our team never quits under Zac and Lou, Boyd seems about the only player that makes me shake my head at times
with his drops at big times and the way he acts on the sidelines at times. Good thing this should be his last year here. Cannot
believe he isn't playing more like a great teammate and giving the most effort possible to up his value before leaving.
Boyd is also playing on an injured ankle. His numbers for the year are close to par for his career averages, save for yards/catch. The reduction in yards/catch can partially be attributed to Joe playing hobbled and hitting very short windows (Boyd's avg yards/target is down accordingly). It's not like Boyd has "lost it" or anything, he has a 60+ yard catch and run under his belt this season.
Oh yeah, before this last game people had a point that Zac can only win with Burrow. Now this changes things, winning with Jake
Browning and if we make the Playoffs it will make Zac look like a much better HC and play caller even. The play calling just might
not be the problem. When players execute we look good and are hard to beat.
Jake Browning was an extremely talented college QB, Heisman finalist even. He had his shoulder repaired, and those things take time to fully recover from. The good news is that Jake's brain didn't get injured, and he's used all of his time with the Bengals to his advantage.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
