LOVE that he gave credit to the front office with drafting, free agency, and claiming guys off waivers!
The fact that he loves Zac so much and thinks so highly of him is so incredible!
Can't wait to see how much the front office does in the offseason to improve the team!
I'm just pumped for tomorrow right now!

He wasn’t asked about Zac he volunteered it so that would be negatory

I wouldn’t expect him to say anything else, but it’s still great to hear.

No matter how much Joe says it, some won't lend it any credence. I haven't heard a QB here talk about the HC like that since Boomer and Sam....and vice versa. Sam always said his offense wouldn't have been as successful without a mind like Boomer had. I think we have a similar dynamic now, and hopefully the FO is smart enough to realize this. There will be rebuilding years, but stay the course.

But now their comments will ring hollow for 95% of the fans.. They’ll just look stupid

They shouldn't ring hollow. 12 wins this year is huge and I feel like the team left meat on the bone. This could be a perennial 12-14 game winner.
Zac and company have improved and adapted. They started terrible, but to their credit...adapted. I'll freely admit that.
I used to be in the camp that Burrow made Zac, but I'm not anymore. Look at the start of the year. Offense looked terrible, then they adjusted so coaching matters.
Also, look at how other can't miss QBs like Trevor Lawrence play. He's good, but he's not at Burrows level. Coaching matters.
And the front office...it feels like every move they make turns out good. Whatever changes they've made, worked.

Never mind that in the last 30 NFL games only KC +2 and Buffalo +1 have more wins.

I feel like you've nailed it here. I had more faith in Zac than the average member here, but I certainly won't pretend I had the faith that Sled had.
When I look at our schedule, how the season started this year, I am firmly in the retain Zac camp. I said at the onset of last year, it's make or break. They made it. I think this year might be more impressive. Especially with how the team showed its depth. That depth, to me, points to coaching.

You're damn right.
The Woman looks horrific tonight and Pederson isn't putting him in good spots either.

Its just nice to be taken seriously as a franchise especially with Bal and Pittsburgh in the same division.
Im definitely not an Andy Dalton basher, and I appreciate him making us competitive but lets face it; No one took the Bengals seriously even with 5 straight playoff appearances.
Burrow is just a different cat, literally. Zac Taylor had a rough start but you cant say that he hasnt improved every year as a coach. He has Sam Wyche like brain farts sometimes but it is to better to try and fail sometimes than to play to lose which it seemed we often did in those days.
Its just nice to wake up on Sundays and feel like we are going to win instead of just hoping for the best.

Woman? Come on now Truck....lol. Sunshine is a gamer. They'll be a tough out in the years to come. It's not his, nor the team's fault Urban Meyer was a dumpster fire.

He's not Burrow, never will be.
And I don't think he's awful, but I said from day one (not searching for the post now) that he will have a middling-above average career.
I don't forsee him EVER being as bad as last year.
ANd I call him the woman because he looks like one all the way down to the cheekbones.

That's because you're from Canada. American women don't look like that
