Zac Taylor vs Marvin Lewis

Seeing how this team is loaded with talent and pretty much every player we've picked up (be it draft or free agency) has been a home run, do we attribute that to Zac and the current staff?

Or do we credit Tobin for rebuilding this team for a 3rd time (2001-2003, 2010-2013, 2019-2021)?

I ask because if Zac had a major role in shaping this roster, he has a much stronger case for another year, even if we go 0-3 down the stretch. If you think it was mainly Tobin, and the talented roster pretty much carried Zac to where we're at, I'd say the last 3 games should weigh heavily on whether we continue on with Zac.

Thoughts?

He’s still got another year on his current contract right? I expect an extension if we win the division and/or make the playoffs. I expect him to finish his contract year even if he loses the last 3 games at this point.

Having some actual success and improving in the W/L area on top of the players loving him will give him minimum another season in Cincinnati.
