Well i am a fan of Goodberry and while I agree with most of his takes and find the way he uses pff and other data points very interesting. I don't take what he says as the gospel. But he doesn't say we have to throw it the most in the league. I'm curious what part of Zacs time here points that he wants a running game to be anything more than a compliment to the passing game? Surely not after the season Burrow just had you think we are gonna start to lean on the run game?
The point on resigning Higgins I agree with Goodberry is that it's hard to get really good players in your building. That there are alot of ways to build a successful team and you can't just have a set model. Because if you only value certain positions but then hit on players outside of your model and let them walk. Then you only add to the list of positions you need to try and get a really good player. The Bengals have been to set in there model of roster and contracts for too long. Break the model of only 1 high paid receiver because that's what are team has right now and stop worrying about the future on contracts. Pay the players you have now and figure the future out when you get there.
