The first year lebron made the finals if you looked at the roster you knew he brought a bunch of scrubs with him. The Bengals got a ton of lucky bounces that superbowl run, including not being super injured like most other teams. Backups are needed to win the superbowl, it's hard to make it there healthy.
Zac Taylor has called such an unbalanced style of offense knowing full well the inadequacy of the o-line. They go out and spend a ton of money to improve the line and there’s barely any improvement.
People assume that Burrow will come back at some point fully healthy and get back to the level of play from him we are accustomed to…the reality is that in order for this team to achieve any success going forward that’s the only way. Chances are that that’s not likely to happen. Every injury and every game he misses most likely takes away from the progression needed to sustain a successful career in the NFL. Zac Taylor’s inexperience and ineptitude is only exacerbating any chance Burrow has of a long successful career.
