Also that specific injury is concerning as a fan, I think the least he will deal with is chronic pain apparently.
If you look far into the future, Burrow is probably once in an era type QB (or at least, every 10-15 years). We don't get lucky with QBs like that lol, if he doesn't work out, our commentary is just copy and paste - difference being Mike Brown will be dead.
Zac does seem to make a lot of mistakes and his play calling is suspect at times, I think a lot of fans will say that about their team. But the coaches also need time to gain experience to figure themselves out.
Agree with everything you say…but if I’m an owner and I’m drafting a guy like Burrow after the college season he had I’m not handing the keys over to a guy trying to figure himself out. Taylor trying to figure himself out resulted in a generational talent like Burrow ending the season getting his knee reconstructed.
Ironically that inexperienced ineptness from Taylor resulted in us drafting Chase.
Besides Taylor sucking so bad that they had a chance to pick #1 and get Burrow and then subsequently getting Burrow hurt to get Chase…what has Taylor brought to this franchise that any other coach in the history of the NFL couldn’t have done?
People credit Taylor with changing the culture of the franchise but honestly I call bullshit. It was 100% Burrow. Does anybody believe there would have been a culture change if Burrow was elsewhere? What about when players contracts were up, did they want to stay in this new found culture under Zac? Especially after 2 semi-successful seasons?
