I never defended the guy until we started beating the Steelers and Ravens last year and we didn't just beat them, we beat
them down. Then we went and won the AFC North in that Chiefs game we had to win and yeah, Burrow was the main reason
for a lot of this, he played great in these 5 games.
Who deserves the credit for the Super Bowl run? The Defense under Lou and Evan McPherson are my votes.
Joe played just good enough to get us there, but without our Defense playing elite football and McPherson making clutch
Kicks we wouldn't of made it.
A star QB is always going to have the most impact. How is Belichick doing without Brady? How’d Arians done this year without Brady? So that’s not a knock on Taylor. How’d McVay do with Stafford?
I think the Bengal fan base remembers his first two years and can’t get past that. Taylor has never been an OC ( briefly interim at Miami) or head coach. Pete Carroll and Sean Payton are considered great coaches. They’ve won a Super Bowl but only played in 1. Taylor engineered this turnaround. Not to minimize Duke Tobin or Lou Anarumo but Tobin wasn’t considered some FO guru ever. Lou was handpicked by Zac. Duke’s better with Zac. And Duke has done great lately.
Taylor can lead a team and an organization. Lots of great head coaches aren’t great leaders. That said Taylor is not near where he’s gonna become.
