The Cincinnati Bengals offense is changing as it continues to be shaped to fit the vision of offensive coordinator Dan Pitcher.
Joe Burrow is operating more under center, and the running game is going to be a bigger point of emphasis.
But now it seems Pitcher might be more involved in the individual plays being called as well.
After the Bengals’ 27-9 victory over the Chicago Bears in Week 2 of the preseason, head coach Zac Taylor said that he thought Pitcher did “an excellent job” calling plays.

Indeed, Cincinnati looked sharp offensively, with quarterbacks Josh Johnson and Sean Clifford combining to complete 25 of 38 passes for 282 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. Running back Tahj Brooks also looked good, getting 16 yards on just three carries.
It remains to be seen if this is a permanent move or if Taylor might consider slowly letting Pitcher take the reins or if it was just a one-time thing in the preseason.
