Just asking, NE game the D did well, Held NE to 16 points (one FG coming on a 7-yard drive). Chase goes for 62 yards and 0 TDs.
The next week against KC we lose on a questionable PI call. Chase goes for 35 yards and 0 TDs
Is it possible we got off to a poor start because our star WR sat out PS?
Nah......It's Zac, because...
He also had that stupid penalty vs KC that killed a drive and we had to settle for 3. 7 could have iced it, IIRC? Or KC would have needed 7 late. And a red zone drop vs NE.
I think it was more the contract issue that messed him up early. He has said as much, basically.
But he's been the best WR in the league weeks 3-16. Burrow had made some costly mistakes this year (fumble returned for TD vs KC, deep pick on drive that could have iced Ravens1), but he's been si darn good behind a mediocre line no one is gonna blame Burrow.
ZTs preseason routine is crap.We are 1-11 in his 6 years the first 2 games. If he does the same thing again and we start 0-2, he should be fired Week 3.
But Burrow and Chase, despite being mostly brilliant, have made some big mistakes in big games, too.
The team in general is like an automatic car: no clutch.
