1.Dallas 2. Tampa 3. Cincy 4. New England 5. Rams 6. Colts 7. KC 8. Buffalo 9. Chargers 10. GB  They are also #7 in yards per play. Teams that have the most explosive plays win 86% of the time

It is hard to go wrong with data! Very impressive!

Now, it's hard to deny how great our offense has turned around. Sure, there's the Burrow and Chase factors, but they don't create the playbook. They don't create the gameplan (though I'm sure they have input), and while Burrow audibles, I'm sure they're running mostly the plays that Zac calls.

I mean, I won't be upset if Zac says he's going to turn all playcalling over to Callahan or whomever replaces Callahan if he gets a HC gig, but I'm finding myself fine with Zac calling plays if the offense remains this explosive.

For the first time since he arrived, he is finally playing with all of his playbook. They just didn't have the personnel who could either play well enough or were healthy enough to use the entire offense.  It made the first 2 years rather 1 dimensional offensively. Couple that with a defense that couldn't get off the field because of talent deficiencies and you have a recipe for 2 disastrous years.  Now, while they still have work to do with some of the personnel, they have enough of the right pieces in the right places to actually compete in the NFL.

But I'm coming around now. 

That's actually one of things I've liked about him from day one.

Another sweet vid. Used to not like rap but this is some great stuff from my fellow Nate.
