That was the whole point of that thread, and me bringing it back up.  You don't know, until you do.  To be honest, I had no idea just how inexperienced that staff was until I looked it up.  There are a lot of parallels here.  Now, in no way am I saying this means Taylor will be at least as good as Wyche, I'm just trying to say maybe folks should back away from the ledge a bit here......


Side note:  in his lone season as a HC and calling plays, Sam Wyche was 1-11 at IU, and was hired as the Bengals' HC the following year.  He was also a QB coach prior.  He had exactly 5 years coaching experience TOTAL before becoming the head man in Cincy.  Only 4 years as a QB coach in SF, and 1 year at IU.  He was a grad assistant at S. Car. before playing for the Wheeling Ironmen.

If social media was around in those days, people's heads would have exploded when he was named HC.
