Summary

Jake and James break down the impact and the tragedy of John Ross's family testing positive for COVID, and his departure from the team to care for his son and son's mother. Then we get into the most noteworthy quotes from Mike Daniels' introductory press conference with Bengals media, including notes on Zac Taylor's culture, friendship with Geno Atkins, and scheme versatility. We conclude the show with some interesting advanced team stats that could give some reason for optimism that Taylor and his offensive coaching staff are trending in the right direction for 2020.
