I'm not saying that these two (or any other) players don't like Zac. But I'm without a doubt not going to take these statements to the bank as some kind of proof that these guys are all in on Zac and somehow that makes him a better coach. It's just grasping at straws because there's nothing else to look at positively about this situation.
You've pointed out already today that you're pumped about FA and the draft and what it'll mean for next year. Great, but those happen regardless of who's coaching. And they're both unknowns at this point, so other than being hopeful about them, there's nothing concrete to look at yet for improvement. What it is exactly about Zac and the trajectory he's shown in two full seasons that gives hope for next year to be better? What concrete thing has happened or been shown that gives optimism?
True that they could be saying the "right thing "publicly , but Burrow said this about Zac since training camp so its not news to me. They could say nothing if they wanted to, but they chose to say something.
