Other NFL teams have interviwed Zampese for OC positions.
Zampese has had a lot of success with his QBs. . .
Kitna won comeback player of the year under his tutelage. He played for 4 different NFL teams and had a higher interception % with every other team than the Bengals.
Dalton was a second round pick and set records for success over the first few years of his career.
Palmer finished 1st in tds, and second in passer rating under Zampese, but when he goes to Arizona and finishes ranked lower in both categories people claim he did better. Palmer's career best completion percentage was under Zampese.
So where are the huge failures that make you think Zampese is a bad coach? All I see is a lot of success.
It's not ego, it is just rare that someone gets so defensive over an internet chat room discussion. You like to throw out Palmer's 2005 season to show what a great QB coach Zampese is. Below are his numbers for 2005 versus 2015. It is also worth noting that he is now 36 years old, has had two major knee injuries, an elbow, and nerve damage in this throwing shoulder since 2005.
2005: 3836 yards, 32 touchdowns, 12 interceptions, and a rating of 101.1
2015: 4671 yards, 35 touchdowns, 11 interceptions, and a rating of 104.6
He was literally better in every singe category, even after all of the circumstances I quoted before.
I am not saying that Zampese is trash. I am saying that I personally would prefer they look elsewhere, or at least conduct a thorough search before hiring him. So unless you have some personal connection, or are getting a recruiting fee for placing him, I don't see why you would get so defensive about it.
