Fins have allowed the 2nd most yards to TE's this year.
I hope Joe progresses through his reads fast enough to take advantage of it.
I'd be feeding the big man and grant him his breakout game.

Absolutely, or just make Hurst the #1 target on several plays. Attack the weakness!

Yep I said in the prediction thread he would go off tonight as well
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.

Yes! Hope this is Hayden Hurst's breakout game as a Bengal. Perfect Defense to do it against. Would be awesome for him to
score a TD as well. I guarantee Hurst is thirsty for a monster game and Burrow and him need to start gaining chemistry and
comradery for the season. It is time.

That's going too far. I don't think it's such a weakness that you should turn your 5th receiving threat into your 1st to ignore your own strength of the 3 WRs.
Hurst is averaging 7.0 yards per reception and is 5th in receiving yards on the team and is closer to 6th than 4th.

This is a problem that has frustrated me in the past. Not exploiting the other teams weakness. Guarantee you Hurst will get normal workload while we keep trying shit that ain’t working.

For Wilcox though, he actually almost f'd it up by running backwards like a moron.
He's lucky his man missed his tackle (was it Ingram?), otherwise he'd've turned a first down into a 4th down.

Was a fan of the result, but wasn't a fan of his decision there.

Agree, but it was good to see those outlets, and Joe taking them.

We got a big TD to our TE last season on TNF, too. Against a team from Florida no less.
If that OT goes our way week 1 it would be eerie how similar the start of the season has been to last year.

He almost fumbled at the end of the play too (or maybe he did, but it went out of bounds). Yeah, backup, lol.

Whitworth was talking about that in an interview earlier in the day. Basically saying it was the same start, with Cincinnati coming out on the wrong end this time in week 1.

My PPR really needed those 5 catches for no yards though.

This guy plays with so much energy... I noticed when our TEs score, we usually win games... CJ won us about 2-3 games last season. Looks like Hurst is a beast that can catch and run the ball in the middle (where we always got burned ourselves wit TEs). I hope they (coaches) capitalize on this. If they play Hurst like CJ, then this confirms that our OC and Zac run plays that they like, rather than plays that suit the players ability to the max. Hurst proved it again in yesterday's game.

Nice. Hurst had a good game, not quite the breakout game I wanted from him but he got a TD and yes, he plays with a
ton of energy and effort. Dude is buff and is hard as hell to tackle. Was a great pickup and I think he will have his best
season with us as I predicted before the season. This was a nice game by the TE's Hurst and Wilcox had a huge play.
Been waiting a long time to see the TE's used more. It opens more up and makes us harder to defend.

Thank you, Truck !
Would love to see us hit our TE's at least once every 10 plays. It should pull a Safety up a bit to open up the WR's, right ?

As soon as I saw him doing that I was like OH NO !
Luckily for us it worked out.
