00:00
And you just got to say it out loud, they forced six turnovers on Sunday.
00:02
Six.
00:03
They won by 10.
00:06
They should have won by 55.
00:08
They should have.
00:09
But Joe threw two picks.
00:10
You had the fumble.
00:12
And then you fumble again with Jordan Batto on what should have easily been a touchdown.
00:17
Like just the discipline or lack thereof of this team at times has hurt them.
00:22
They're disciplined to do the little things right.
00:24
Tackling.
00:25
They're disciplined to get the play in.
00:27
You hear Zach talk about the headset.
00:30
It's embarrassing, Joe said.
00:32
You can see it on it.
00:33
It's embarrassing.
00:34
It doesn't matter about the headset going in and out.
00:36
Just get the play into me so we can go.
00:38
I'm sure that was his mindset.
00:39
Let's just go, man.
00:41
I'm the one reading the play at the beginning.
00:43
The way it works is Joe's given a play and then he's reading the defense and he'll change
00:47
the play if he needs to.
00:49
Absolutely.
00:50
So just give him a play.
00:53
And so yeah, I get the frustration.
00:56
Understand it.
00:58
My big takeaway, my main takeaway from it isn't that Zach has lost the team.
01:03
It's not that Joe Burrow hates Zach or anything like that.
01:06
No, it's not that.
01:07
Joe Burrow is evolving.
01:09
Joe Burrow knows what it takes to win.
01:12
Joe knows that this team is not playing at that standard right now.
01:15
And that is tearing him apart.
01:17
It's making him very frustrated and it should.
01:20
It should.
01:21
You're frustrated as a fan.
01:22
Of course you are.
01:23
I'm frustrated covering this team because you think like, oh, well, if they had just
01:28
beat Jacoby Brissett or they'd just done this, they'd be seven and seven right in the thick
01:31
of the playoff race and right there.
01:33
Instead, they're six and eight.
01:36
They're still playing poorly.
01:38
Even in a game when you have six turnovers and you force six turnovers, it feels blah
01:43
against a bad Titans team.
01:44
The Titans are bad.
01:46
We saw it.
01:47
They are a bad football team.
01:49
And so Joe knows it.
01:51
And I was like, man, this is just not up to the standard that we need to be at in the
01:55
middle of December.
01:57
And so no problem with him.
01:59
No problem with him voicing his opinion like that on the sideline to Zach Taylor.
02:03
I like it.
02:04
I think the Bengals need more of it.
02:05
And I think we're going to see more of that from Joe moving forward.
02:08
Because he knows what it takes.
02:10
And all these great quarterbacks, when you realize what it takes and you're not there,
02:17
that's maddening.
02:18
Because you're still putting in the same work.
02:19
You're still putting in the same level of effort.
02:22
You're playing at a really, really high level this season, and it's still not enough.
02:27
That's frustrating.
02:28
And that's why Joe Burrow, in my eyes, did what he did.
02:32
And will continue to evolve into, for my money, as good as any quarterback in the league.
02:38
And I know Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson are in the MVP debate and a lot of people crowning
02:43
Josh.
02:44
But I think Joe is playing at an elite level.
02:46
We've seen that.
02:48
And we'll continue to see that, I think, over these next three weeks.
