My original comment that sent Zac Taylor sig guy into such a tizzy was merely me saying it’s been Lou who’s owned the Chiefs (thought that was a pretty well established fact among our fandom). Our offense has done their part against them (especially the 266 yards/3 TD’s game by Chase), but it’s really been Lou’s 2nd half adjustments that stifled the KC offense that made the difference. Not sure why that’s so controversial to point out.

It's not, but while Lou's adjustments may be the MAIN reason why we've beaten the Chiefs 3 out of the last 4 times we faced them, he's not the ONLY reason. To claim that Lou is the only one on the Bengals coaching staff who's "owned" the Chiefs is to totally discount the role the offense played as well as the HC. Zac doesn't just call plays on offense; he's the HC and as such there are other things he does besides call plays and other decisions he has to make. To claim that Lou is the only one who "owns" the Chiefs to state that you don't understand how a football team operates.

To be fair, I don't fully either, but I know enough to know that coaches don't coach in a vacuum.
