Well on course to wasting his career too.

Yep. And Chase on a rookie contract.

Burrow's contract starts to escalate quickly too.

Sucks.

I get Palmer and Dalton were not like that either.  But a little change in joe’s philosophy might be needed too..  maybe not.. i dont know..

I get that. But, IF he had a personality like that...he'd probably demand a trade.

Yelling at guys only goes so far. Our defensive line isn't talented outside of Trey. Our secondary isn't that talented.

Outside of Chase and Higgins, our WR's aren't that good. We have 2 backs that are backups on most teams too. Plus, we run a scheme that relies on uber-talented guys winning matchups 1on1.

There's only so much you can do with a lack of talent. Maybe yelling at them will get them to try harder. But, that's short-lived.

He's still a top 10 QB, but something feels off with him. This dink and dunk play calling is horrid. Now, I'm positive he has the authority to audible, but is he? Has he lost his drive? Is he studying the films like he used too? I have to be serious, when he started with that haircut and dye, the catwalk with the open shirt, and whatever shenanigans he was doing before the season, I started to get concerned about his focus.

Todays Burrow is not the Burrow from 2yrs ago.

Burrow's interception today: My opinion has nothing to do with that. QB's eventually throw IT's. But did you see the drive or spark in his eyes that we normally see? Has his will to win at all cost diminished? Please tell me I'm wrong. Dude is making mad money and we need production for every cent.

If we don't start winning, I see Chase gone. We're not going to pay Chase if the team is not clicking and we have a mad chance at a run.

Nah, Burrow is fine, we just put too much damn pressure on him, and he even does it to himself. We cannot be a pure passing Offense 
and expect for him to just be Superman out there. We need a running game and honestly we are efficient if we use it more with Chase
Brown and Zack Moss, it is just we like to pass the ball way too much. That interception was not on him, that was a better pass than 
Mahomes made against us in the AFC Championship that Bates tipped to Bell. Was just a great play by Isaiah Rogers to Gardner Johnson.

We also need a WR2 that can stay on the field.

Whether Burrow is 100% or not the offense is too inconsistent to even have a real chance with this defense

Nailed what we need Bob. Need to get rid of Lou and add a real DC and OC that knows what they are doing. If we can get a running game Joe 
won't have everything on his shoulders. Notice how the Eagles take all the pressure off of Jalen? That is what we need to do for Joe.

Again i also never said yelling.. i meant talking, motivating, soothing.. The worst thing as a player is making a mistake and looking over at Joe and he is just staring at a tablet and not paying attention to anyone. Maybe he does do it and the cameras dont catch it. I never see him comforting anyone.

He did get pretty fired up with the refs when Burton messed up....

Although it ended up being misdirected anger.
