Everyone thought I was such a ZT and Anarumo homer all off season.
Like you, I only wanted to judge them based on them having the opportunity to coach with players that fit their scheme and wanted to be there.
Patience has shown to have paid off for the Bengals. Can't imagine where we would be if we fired everyone like a lot of people on this board wanted and still want to do. These coaches all know the X's and O's of coaching football. They just need the right X's and O's for their system. Once they have the right ones it would be fair to judge their coaching abilities.
I for one feel that ZT and Anarumo have already shown they will be good/great coaches. The draft has been great, the locker room is solid and for the most part the game plans have been good. I really don't want to start over with a new coaching staff, I think that puts you 2-3 years behind.
I've said that forever, and have been roundly lambasted for it. The book is still out, but I stand by what I said.
