The team is really quite remarkable on offense. And they do this playing a lot of tough defensive teams in the AFC North. Also look at KC-Chargers game last night. The Chiefs struggled mightily on offense against the Chargers defense -- the best in the league, giving up only 15.9 points per game -- with the Chiefs scoring only 19 points at home. Meanwhile, the Bengals put up 27 on the Chargers away -- the most points scored against the Chargers all year.
Why would Zac give up, or be forced to give up, offensive play calling, when the Bengals offense is the one part of the Bengals team that is humming.
Well, with a running game this Offense would be even better. You make good points as usual Nepa, it is just I think this Offense is putting
up these numbers in spite of Zac, not because of him. Burrow has been playing his best ball ever along with Chase, they should be a top 5
scoring Offense when this is happening.
The question to me is how much of the going away from the running game is on Burrow? If he is a big reason I guess it doesn't matter if
we brought in another OC, it would be the same as Burrow loves being in the Shotgun and passing the majority of the time.
