Around then.
But after PB stepped down, were.these 2 coaches just basically
Figureheads and was PB still coaching the team from his position
As GM and Owner?
Kinda like in.the mafia when.you have a real.boss and a front boss
Its been.speculated over and over that Bill Walsh was the logical
Replacement when PB stepped down.
I think PB realized right away how innovative and
Intelligent Walsh was on the brink of being the next great
NFL head coach and would be harder to control
I wonder behind the scenes if PB regretted the hirings
Of Johnson and Rice hence neither coach got the Bengals
In the playoffs
Zac Taylor is obviously a HC who calls plays but how common would that have been in the 1970s?
Is that a relatively recent trend?
