I have always said Zac was not as good as made out to be. So bad we got Burrow for a number of games then got Chase and got to the Super Bowl. I have also been objective. I have been in the GDT where people have said things against Taylor and I would say "I'm as anti-Zac as anyone, but that's not his fault." This "glimmer" has been widely panned across multiple spheres, from this board when it was happening, all night shows, all morning, and they trashed it on the Monday Night Countdown Show on ESPN this evening. I'm don't agree with the calls at the end. I am in the majority. I don't care about hurt feelings of those who think Taylor needs a safe space due to what happened before.
The loss of that game was had mostly to do with everything with the defense in the past number of years, culminating with what we have now. A lot of blame goes around for that. To say that the play calling, after we lucked into getting the ball, with the chance to win was suspect, is absolutely fair. To run back two seasons to say put stripes on someone's arm, yet ignore that someone else who also earned "i was there" ribbons is suspect. Stats are cute, but last I checked, they don't help with playoff seeding.
