[Zac] was just trying to tell me to be happy with the win, and I appreciate that about him. Because I can get lost in, just like everybody can, you get lost in the adversity of the season. You can't take winning for granted and I've tried to get better at that.

#important characterization notes #i do agree that they asked wayyyyyyyy too many questions about the outburst (if you can call it that)#and like....one question about the browns lol #but! i did think this was very interesting #because like. all zac was trying to do was be like 'chill out. we won. be happy!' and joe responding #FUCK THAT IT'S FUCKING EMBARRASSING!!! 😡😡😡#is precious to me #this lil perfectionist. never happy with just winning.#even in a season where those have been exceedingly rare #just like the raiders game! (and i do think it was interesting that he said he can let himself have these outbursts #when they have the game in hand. but they should be blowing out their opponents #like the raiders like the titans. but they aren't. but he feels comfortable anyway.)#verrrrrrry interesting #so calculated even when he seems to be 'losing it'#and then to tie it back to joe'marr. because of course. it's me.#thinking back to that ravens post-game insta live that ja'marr had #of joe apologizing for playing like shit (and not focusing on the fact that they. you know. won the division for 2 years in a row)#and ja'marr assures him he's good and all but doesn't tell him to just be happy #he tells him yeah. you did fuck up on some stuff. but you're good. you're good.#i dunno. ja'marr noted joe handler! versus how zac handled it lol #(also joe emphasizing that he didn't want the yelling all the time in your face coach.)#(let's not forget he dealt with that already with urban lol)#and even in this response saying that he appreciated what zac was doing #ANYWAY just rambling at this point #joe burrow #zac taylor #cincinnati bengals
