Worse backup QB situation in the league even though we traded up for one and carried three on the roster all last year. Opened more holes on the roster than have been fixed over the last two years.
Dude is a position coach. Not a head coach
How much is that on Zac and how much on Tobin?
Because if it was Tobin who traded up for Finlay, who kept Dolegala on the roster, who is failed to repair the holes on the roster then we'll still have a problem if/when Zac goes and that won't be addressed until Burrow's rookie contract is over.

I'll go out on a limb and guess that Mikey is the one that's getting pissed. Mikey is an epically bad owner from a historical perspective, but he's not a complete fool. He also loves his shiny offensive weapons like no other part of the team.
He and the family have to understand that Burrow is/was the ticket out of the doghouse with the city and fanbase. Joe is highly likable, high profile, and pretty damn good at football. All of the crap that the national media talked about them just seemed to be proven true with this injury. I'd almost be surprised if they weren't irate with Taylor's handling of his rookie year. They got the best toy under the tree last Christmas and soon had the privilege of watching the dude they gave more control than they've ever given anyone let it get smashed to pieces.
Get mad, Mikey, get real mad.
It's not Mikey getting mad. He doesn't speak to the press and if he did speak it wouldn't be too Bleacher Report and even then Bleacher Report are going to lead with that story rather than bury it in a filler list.
