In 2015 Zac Taylor was the interm OC for the 27th scoring offense.
In 2016 Zac Taylor was the OC for the 123rd out of 128 scoring offense in college.

Zac Taylor has never had success running an offense at any level. His main claim to fame is briefly working for Sean McVay. He was the ASSISTANT wide receivers coach in 2017 for the Rams, and then he was the QB coach in 2018 for a QB who in 2017 had already posted a 100.5 QB Rating and went to the Pro Bowl.

Zac Taylor seems like a nice guy, but has never run a successful offense before, got promoted too fast, and he's in WAY over his head.

Bill Walsh. Great OC prior to becoming HC, right?
First year as HC 2-14
2nd year as HC 6-10 (though they started the 2nd year 3-0 after the first 3 games)

Guess San Fran should've jettisoned him after their 2nd season, no?

Zac Taylor may or may not be in over his head. So far, the best you can say about him is that the team still played hard for him last year in  week 17 and that we don't lose by a lot of points. That doesn't mean he won't figure it out and become better than Bill Walsh or Bill Belichick  (doesn't mean he will, either, I know) .

The point being anyone who says we should just let him go NOW is, at best, short-sighted and, more likely, just plain dumb.
