Okay is everyone done crying and moaning?

But, they held onto him so long that the fanbase would have been happy with any HC just as long as it was a change and not Hue Jackson.

And even the Jackson stuff was botched. He won 1 single game in 2 years as Cleveland's HC AND he gets fired and we run out to hire him...and entertain atleast some possibility that he's Marvin's replacement. IF the media backlash wasn't so bad, they probably would have hired him...

How messed up is that? Him being a bad HC that his team immediately started winning when he was hired and we started losing when he came back wasn't enough...they worried about the backlash.

And ZT...Rams assistant WR coach one year and QB coach in year 2...yet fans act like he was the architect of the Rams success the past 2 years.

He had a middling offense as the OC at U of Cincy. He was bad as the Dolphins OC.

Nothing in his past says innovative genius...yet that's our only hope.

That’s dismal. How can you judge ZT already when he hasn’t coached a game for the Bengals yet? If you go by his past, then you may have trust issues in people, like they don’t learn and grow. I think ZT will come in and show us what it’s like to be competitive in the NFL. He’s been praised by his peers for his intelligence.

Too many people give up too easy and lose hope. That’s not a cheap shot by any means at you, but the negative feedback on whatever this team does to try and get better is baffling. If ZT walks in and stinks up the house, then so be it. At least we tried to fix what hasn’t been working for 16yrs.

I just hope that if he doesn’t do well as HC, that we don’t hang on more than 3-4. I would like to feel the joy of a SB before I die.
