They won’t. Zac loves him and Joe loves him and that’s the end of the story.

That's something some people don't get about these coaches ( Not speaking on the Bengals staff specifically ). Some guys are great position coaches or coordinators but other jobs they just implode on. Yes, some just need that opportunity, but some people are just good in a smaller role, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Maybe they learned something from the transition from Brat when they thought outside of the box and brought someone from outside in, considering the post Hue promote from within disasters.
Pitchers resume isn’t all that impressive outside of the last 3 years (which could be and likely is because of Burrow). Calihan was young but had worked for other teams and coached other qbs successfully. Pitcher was a scout with Indy. Has he coached anywhere else on a pro level. Some point to college, but I’d caution those to remember the level of college and completion.
Zac does seem to have a great deal of respect for him.

I think they are fully confident in Pitcher. No worries. They know what they are doing.

Solid defense and a young QB who has flashed. They’ll be a playoff team by 2025
They should be able to land Bill Callahan too. They’ll surprise a lot of people next year

Certainly other teams are interested in Pitcher. He has three interviews lined up to become OC Coordinator: Patriots tomorrow, Raiders also tomorrow, and Saints on Thursday. (per Rapoport)

I wonder if Pitcher would prefer to be an OC somewhere that he has control of calling plays?

2 teams with new head coaches and bad QB situations and the thrid with a coach heading into next season on the hot seat.
He'll stay with the Bengals.

Security could be the key for Pitcher. Lots of security at the Bengals

1st round pick #7 would be pretty sweet.

Good for him. Wonder if Callahan would prefer Tennessee ownership + Levis over Carolina ownership + Bryce Young.
They are in desperate need of a WR....

That is what Titan fans are hoping for. They even want Jonah Williams too

Congrats to Brian, hope he does well. If / when Pitcher is elevated, who takes HIS place in the pecking order?

Carolina is a dumpster fire. Tennesse is the right choice
