Did anyone see Chido making a star turn when we signed him? Did anything in his past suggest it? How about the Eli Apple reclaimation project? Anyone have that on their bingo cards? The Tre Flowers TE Cooler mission? Even Davis looked pretty good when he had to fill in for the usually stellar Hilton. Von Bell's INT bounty this year? And now the better than expected start from CTB. Wow.
And the way way Pratt, Wilson, ADG, and Bailey have progressed at LB ain't nothing either.
And Bachie and Johnston....

Amen.
We have turned every LB player into, at min, a passable rotational piece, and the success rate at CB is only lower because Waynes was hurt all the time, Phillips turned into a head case, and Hill & Anderson haven't gotten shots yet.
The success rate is off the charts.

Your reply reminds me of this scene from Family Guy.

Lou Anarumo is the best defensive coordinator the Bengals have had since Di... — I mean Richard — LeBeau. Lou is better than Mike Zimmer and I never thought I could admit this but it’s true. He is. Remember when the Bengals couldn’t cover a tight end? Those days are over.
We all know Lou is considered head coach material by a growing number of teams. I’m still hurt over Mike Zimmer’s exit from the Queen City because the Bengals fell apart over the next few years. Letting Lou Anarumo go would be an even bigger mistake. His defenses have risen to the occasion in the playoffs with key interceptions, forced fumbles, and critical stops. The Bengals would not be AFC champions without Lou’s defense.
Mikey Boy, Katie, and Duke need to pay the man. I mean PAY. I would offer Lou everything including the kitchen sink. The worst nightmare I can imagine is coaching AGAINST him.
They will have to pay him or we WILL lose him. That is for sure, his Defense loves playing for him, and he is like a mad scientist
out there going against the new age Offenses. If he does leave, I love the addition of Betcher though, he is a damn good Defensive
coach himself and he is coaching the Linebackers right now. Was surprised when Betcher came here as just a LB coach as I thought
he should be a DC somewhere. Maybe this was the plan all along in case Lou left and that was the reason Betcher came here...

Theres the Colts and Panthers so far....
Colts
Panthers
Texans (I can't imagine Lovie keeping his job)
Cardinals (I don't see them keeping Kyler and Kingsbury together)
Rams (McVay supposedly has a very high paying broadcast job waiting for when he retires)
Broncos (Hackett is in over his head)
Saints (Supposedly Allen's seat is getting warmer)
Chargers (Staley is being pegged as a potential surprise firing if the Chargers finish with a losing record)
The Raiders are also rumored to be wanting to move on from McDaniels, but can't afford to fire him because of the Gruden deal.

How many of those teams do you think would be salivating at the chance to hire Zac?

I can Broncos going for a Defensive Coach maybe the texans (if anyone would want that job) But the others will probably focus on offense if i had to guess.
If he goes hopefully its to the nfc though lol
