He's been asked to run block more than pass block.
His run block is ok, but it could be better.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.

Matt Lee has some potential, but he's not physically ready for starting action. I would like to see Lee get some spot duty in games where the outcome is not in question, but he needs at least another year of physical development. Karras, even though he moves nobody off the ball, is still the shot caller and leader of the OL. Change, just for the sake of it, is pointless.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

I don't get the narrative that Dax is playing bad, He currently has a higher rating than Awuzie did last year.
I don't blame any DB for a poor coverage score last week. JD had about 5 seconds to throw the ball, I could have found an open receiver.
Of course I couldn't throw the ball to them, but I could find 1.

Dax is not getting a fair shot with this board lol

Dax is getting hammered for his tackling. His coverage has been pretty good.
I like Bell's leadership, but I can't help but think Battle is a better player at this point.

Sadly. And vice versa, too. Once the board jumps on a guy's bandwagon, they aren't coming off until the wheels completely fall off.

Geno needs to be a deep safety and stay a deep safety: he can't be asked to be Bates, thus if it is a running down, Battle should be in there.
