Taylor Era begins apparently. Being both young and inexperienced as a head coach he will have to gain the player’s respect IMMEDIATELY...players can see through bs quickly. Must capture and win the room right off the jump. #Bengals ?????? https://t.co/EIvzo1TsNQ

Anyhow, If Zac is gonna be our guy then it would be awesome if he comes in here after winning the SB!! I will surely be watching this weekends game in a different light then before.
Well my Bengal Brother, I'm also an OSU fan. I love me some Zeke, but my hypocrisy stops with "Dallas Cowboys". The whole "America's Team" thing that was shoved in our faces as kids, still rubs my craw. So, I'm hoping for the Rams to hang 40+ on the Cowboys, keeping them in pass-first mode all game long.
But, either way, if the Rams lose we get to see Zac announced sooner, and he can get busy naming his staff.

I think if it is Taylor, the New Orleans, Rams, Kansas offenses will be the goal for the Bengals. The way the rules are now, it favors offenses. I also think this may change the 2019 draft approach.
It may also help spurn John Ross's potential.

I think his hire would change a lot of moving parts of the Bengal organization, including players. Trades may happen. But I think Dalton will stay because there needs some stability and Dalton has some ability.
The only way for the Bengals franchise (with the way it is run) to win anything substantial is to win the lottery at QB and/or HC.

Hiring Zac Taylor is a buying a lottery ticket.

That is one of the things I have ALWAYS had a problem with too, and still do and trust me I don't root for the team as a team, I just really root for Zeke more then anything.
His father in law is Mike Sherman. Plenty of experience to rely on and maybe even bring in for some lesser capacity. Just a thought...
He's got 15 years to get ready to call the offense. No need to rush!

Mike ponied up for a few players for Marvin to win with. I am so sick of this narrative that he never did.

Man the NFL is filled with nepotism for people to even break into that industry. Everyone seems related somehow.

Hiring Zac Taylor is a buying a lottery ticket.
Plan:
Step 1: Hire Zac Taylor
Step 2: Upgrade OL and front-7 in 2019 draft
Step 3: Upgrade offensive position players and DBs in 2020 draft
Step 4: Tank 2020 season to be able draft Trevor Lawrence #1 overall
Step 5: ?????
Step 6: SUPER BOWL!
A lot of good things will come from the hire if it is true. Hopefully they fix the damn offense line!

Good read. If its Zac I hope Press is OC.

There was something there the start of last season, and they have a history. If not Lazor, the new OC should call plays. We just need him to bring a new vibe. Manage the team, and get to know the Brown family and City.

I hope Lazor is let go not a fan of his play calling.

UC had the 6th ranked offense under Taylor. It was the only bright spot.

Its possible but since he is passing game coordinator the rams could block this from happening. I think his brother press will be the oc. He is currently qb coach for eagles who came up with the philly special for the super bowl. I really like what I have read about press he is supposedly a anal football junkie who is very creative coming up with new plays.

Although UC finished 4-8 that season, The UC offense, coordinated by Taylor, ranked 6th in the country, rolling up nearly 600 yds a game.
Now if people want to talk about when he became interim OC in Miami, that’s a different story. In the 5 games he was interim OC the Miami offense only averaged 17 pts per game.
