@Zona_Buckeye I’ll be honest. I did. Didn’t trust saying to not just drop the ball or something. Wanted the points and them to bring in a sports psychologist in during the break before we make any more decisions.
@Nati_Sports Gotta be honest. Our wins have been against a whole bunch of almost winless teams. Not how I thought I’d be feeling about them. I’m uneasy.
@JoeGoodberry Zach can’t help but tinker. Just be one of the best offenses doing what JB does. Tinker with the D. repeating what he’s done in the past with an average defense makes us contenders. Every year we try something new until JB gets fed up and makes us let him do what he does best.
@Nati_Sports As irritated as I am, we NEVER turn it on til JB gets sick of it midseason and forces his will, then we take off. He’s already leaking those thoughts pre-bye. And this defense, is LOADS better than the last few years. We will be fine. Just wish we didn’t blow the winnable ones.
@CLE_440@Nati_Sports Thank you for making this an easy conversation to get out of. I have a strict no engagement with irrationally ignorant people rule.
@CLE_440@Nati_Sports There’s a world of difference between “Can’t” and putting players in a system designed around their strengths to succeed. Switch Joe Burrow and Caleb Williams and nothing else and tell me if you see a difference.
@DARTH_DUCK_9@Nati_Sports You can screen and dink from gun and accomplish a similar thing without taking the ball out of joes hands. That’s what’s made them one of the best offenses the past few years
@Nati_Sports Why is my favorite team legitimately the most miserable experience each week? They are just hard to watch despite their superstars. I enjoy watching other games more.
@JoeGoodberry This insane dedication to the run puts burrow in third and medium or long, in shotgun once per three downs. Burrow in shotgun 3 times is better than burrow in shotgun 1 time. I promise.
@LanceMcAlister Easy to have flashbacks when several of the same players weren’t replaced. The LB’s, 2nd safety, and slot CB problems weren’t addressed
@Nati_Sports Honestly if we just make it out of that game healthy I’d consider it a win no matter the score. I think and hope we will win. We have the better team… but I’m nervous every Pittsburgh week. When is a pattern not a pattern? When it’s an identity. And theirs is dirty.
@Nati_Sports My specific job is turning dying orgs around. When something is this bad it’s usually not either or, but a both and. When an organization is this bad you can’t fix lower tier problems until you fix the higher ones that created or allowed the lower ones to go on in the first place
