Greatest show on turf, 2000s colts, 2010s saints, 2020s bengals
Why do you say 2020’s bengals? Interested to hear your take on it.
Because they are a finesse team. So much of the offense is predicated on timing routes and coordination between Burrow and his receivers. All the back shoulders he throws are a perfect example of a finesse game. They also struggle mightily when played by a more physical defense as we've seen against the Ravens the past 2 years.
That era Saints feasted on screen passes, which could be argued to be the definition of finesse.
