I used to be tremendously frustrated with Marvin Lewis' clock management. For me, Zac's clock management has been a bright spot on the team. Yes, he makes mistakes. But I am more than pleased by his clock management, relative to what I have seen from his predecessors and some current coaches in the NFL.
there have been brilliant examples of doing well. Remember beating KC on a last-second FG? They could have kicked it much earlier and left time on the clock for Mahomes, but he went for it on 4th down (against seemingly everybody) because he knew it was critical that the ball be in Burrow's hands at the end, not Mahomes.
They brilliantly couldn't score from the one on four straight tries . . . thanks to two 4th down penalties on KC, one was offsetting penalties when Mixon was stopped at the one for no gain on a pass and the other was an incompletion to Boyd. Burrow injured his knee on the last 4th down play, had to be helped off of the field and Brandon Allen was the QB for the kneel down and the spiking of the ball. Seems that our HC has a short memory like some of our fellow fans.
I'm not the only one that thinks that Zac screwed this up.
