In the NFL the browns hired him as their QB coach, lol

Zampese is a good example of what happens to a lot of coaches in the NFL. They do a good job and get promoted until they reach a position they are not good enough for.

Zampese was a good QB coach, but a failure at OC.

Wonder if he's looking forward to working with AJM again.

He's a decent QB coach so no surprise there. He's probably looking forward to coaching Josh Rosen

Yep that’s a good hire for them. But I’m afraid that’s his ceiling.

never had an issue with him as our QB coach... (except our QB had to go elsewhere to work on mechanics... Maybe Zampese needs to visit Dr House too..)

He for sure was a good QB coach but he was in over his head as an OC. Not sure if he had his own system, which he could have eventually got to implement or was forced to do it the Bengals way of keeping the players comfy and everything familiar....

Will people stop with these misleading thread titles!?!? I know it’s probably some BS, but with the Bengals you never know. Heart skipped a beat, not that he was a bad QB coach which is the highest job we have available

Yeah, dirty bastids.

Waiting to see Kitna hired at this position for us.

Agreed. He was a very solid QB boach, but a bad OC. If he had gone to Cleveland as OC, I'd have laughed. But given he's going to be their QB coach, I don't think it was a bad move on their part.

FYI: Known as the "Peter Principle"

I'm not sure Zampeeze might not work his way back up. He's been a QB coach a long time, but not really much else except our oc a short time. Still, not everyone's cut out to be coordinator or HC..
I hope he makes good except against us..

This just shows that AJM is going to Cleveland to mentor that draft pick.

We find out if we get AJM another year in a few days I think it was to be decided on the 15th of this month.

Oh yes please. Dear Browns, now that you already got Zampese, please hand over your fourth overall pick for McCarron. Since I don't know exactly if he's a RFA or UFA and what that actually means, I'm guessing you don't know either. So just put it to rest, give us the pick and get it over with. McCarron is nice, friendly, well-behaved, doesn't kneel, has a pretty girlfriend (I suppose) and funny little cheeks, plus he and Zampese are a great super fun couple to be around. He also almost beat Pittsburgh once. Get smart!

Agree Zmpese was a solid QB coach but horrid OC.

This is very common with typical jobs/careers.

In the work place this called "The Peter Principle.". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_principle.

Zampese was promoted to a level of incompetence.

Yup, that's more or less my thought on it. Okay-not-great QB coach, who could make your QB okay, but they had to search for someone else to make the next step.

He is to QB coaching as Marvin is to HCing.
