Also, no disrespect at all, but I don't give a rat's backside how "close" ZT feels this team is. He hasn't been able to get these guys motivated or over the hump in all the close games they've had. They've gotten blown out in others. His playcalling makes no sense. He sails like a ship without a rudder. So he goes into a presser and says they're close. Of course he does! Is he going to admit that he's in over his head and has no clue how to manage an NFL football team? He won't even admit that his OC duties he's taken on aren't bearing fruit or might be distracting him and letting someone else step in. The guy's an ego trip. So I don't really care what he says, I don't believe it.
I saw a team on Monday night that played with some energy. Earlier in the season I saw Burrow go out and try to take the team on his back to win games. I don't credit ZT with any of that. I don't expect a team of professionals to come out and declare they think ZT is a joke. I don't expect the Brown family to come out mid-season and say it, either. But I don't think winning out this year is a magical pill filled with confidence that takes this team to 9 or 10 wins next year. There is more the team needs to do to get to that place, and while winning is nice, I just don't think it makes much of a difference to what happens 9 months from now.
I dont buy only Burrow can make plays no one else , he made great plays and bads plays also.. other players made plays too. My point was I never said winning would fix everything but would help to us on the way to fix things. I was very confident that ZT is here 3 years so I want to build on success with an improved team at end of year. I hope our defense continues to improve on a solid 2nd half and our remade line continues to show improvement and win out..
