I posted several times during the preseason that I advocated giving Zac this season before concluding our evaluation of him, and if we would’ve known we were going to the super bowl, I doubt I would’ve had so many arguing against it. I certainly disagreed with some things, notably the misuse of Perine at times at the expense of Mixon, but we have a lot to be optimistic about from a personnel and coaching standpoint.

mistakes. I was one of the guys saying we needed to make the Playoffs and win a game or we should move on. We ended up
winning our first playoff game in 30+ years and winning 2 road Playoff games something no other Bengal HC has ever done.
The strides Zac and Lou specifically made in one year coaching wise was staggering. Expect more growth this year as well.
These were the comments I was referring to. Waiting for the coach to catch up to the team. I've commented many times about drafting three LBs that were captains . . . I like the culture change . . . I ####ing hate his play calling and think he's in over his head trying to run an NFL sideline and call every single snap at 38 years old. His QB is dragging him up a hill at this point. He basically admitted he's still on the job training play caller after his sphincter tightened up at the end of the OT loss to the Niners. Sure, Joe says the right things now . . . so did Palmer when he was here.

The front office? Maybe, but, imo, the team(ie: Joe) has passed him since around the Denver game.
With Joe Burrow 12-13-1 in the regular season - 15-14-1 overall
Without Joe Burrow 4-19 in the regular season - 16-32-1 in the regular season overall
And Joe may be saying the right things but I did remember Chase mentioning that it sure would be nice to move inside every now and then to see different coverages. But, I guess Zac's plan is to stick him against a teams #1 CB on every snap.<----period. I watch teams get their #1 WR, like oh let's say Cooper Kupp, on Logan Wilson or Vonn Bell anytime they want, but Zac either can't do it, won't do it or forgets to do it(like forgetting to call a screen play in a Super Bowl).
If he gave up play calling, I would like just about everything else he's done here. I'm still not happy with their . . . * ahem* . . . ATTEMPT at fixing the O-line last year coming off of a season with a QB with a shredded knee and a Center with a late season knee injury.
FA - Riley Rieff
Well, that's not a lot . . . lucky for us, the draft is stacked at O-line in 2021
2021 Draft - 1 pick out of the 1st 5 picks, a late 4th developmental Tackle and a Center that looks a long way away from being a legitimate backup.
