The bottom line is: what they have been doing isn't working. That is a part of the reason for the coaching changes.
You need to learn the definition of "cherry picking". By just looking at one year YOU are the one cherry picking, not me. You claim that the pass defense has struggled the past two seasons when in 2016 they ranked 5th in pass efficiency, 4th in interceptions, and 10th in fewest td passes allowed.
You act like you are criticizing Guenthers "scheme", yet you refuse to talk about any other year except 2017. You act like he played some completely different scheme in '14-'16, but that just is not true. You are the one "cherry picking".
As far as "reason for the coaching change", the Bengals tried to keep Guenther, but he wanted to go to LA with Gruden. And not a single other defensive coach was replaced.
