SI Report - Bengals planning "major shake up" to Taylor's staff - ochocincos - 12-31-2020 https://www.si.com/nfl/bengals/allbengals-insiders-plus/bengals-major-shakeup-zac-taylor-coaching-staff Elise Jesse Wrote:Sources tell AllBengals that the team will move on from multiple assistants at the end of the season. Key thing to note: Zac Taylor WILL be returning for a 3rd season, but the organization will force out multiple assistant coaches.

Outside of Turner and Lou what other assistant coaches need to be shown the door? Maybe Dufner? RE: SI Report - Bengals planning "major shake up" to Taylor's staff - J24 - 12-31-2020 If you're going to make that many major steps then just start all over again. This team needs a new start.

RE: SI Report - Bengals planning "major shake up" to Taylor's staff - Murdock2420 - 12-31-2020 Just for clarity. The Bengals coaches: Coordinators: OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR BRIAN CALLAHAN Experience: 11 YEARS DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR LOU ANARUMO Experience: 9 YEARS SPECIAL TEAMS COORDINATOR/ASSISTANT HEAD COACH DARRIN SIMMONS Experience: 18 YEARS Assistant Coaches: ASSISTANT SPECIAL TEAMS COACH COLT ANDERSON Experience: 1 year WIDE RECEIVERS BOB BICKNELL Experience: 13 YEARS TIGHT ENDS JAMES CASEY Experience: 2 YEARS DEFENSIVE ASSISTANT GERALD CHATMAN Experience: 2 YEARS SENIOR DEFENSIVE ASSISTANT MARK DUFFNER Experience: 24 YEARS DEFENSIVE LINE NICK EASON Experience: 5 YEARS LINEBACKERS AL GOLDEN Experience: 5 YEARS CORNERBACKS STEVE JACKSON Experience: 17 YEARS DEFENSIVE QUALITY CONTROL JORDAN KOVACS Experience: 2 YEARS OFFENSIVE ASSISTANT BRAD KRAGTHORPE Experience: 2 YEARS SECONDARY/SAFETIES ROBERT LIVINGSTON Experience: 6 YEARS ASSISTANT OFFENSIVE LINE BEN MARTIN Experience: 3 YEARS QUARTERBACKS COACH DAN PITCHER Experience: 5 YEARS RUNNING BACKS JEMAL SINGLETON Experience: 4 YEARS OFFENSIVE LINE JIM TURNER Experience: 26 YEARS RE: SI Report - Bengals planning "major shake up" to Taylor's staff - ochocincos - 12-31-2020 (12-31-2020, 06:59 PM)Murdock2420 Wrote: Turner better be number one on that list. I am a bit curious if they force him to hand over offensive playcalling to his OC so he can focus on HC duties. Speaking of OC, will Callahan be kept? It's hard to say since we don't really know what he does if he's not calling plays. IIRC, Al Golden is responsible for the pass rush, so I could see him leaving. Turner almost assuredly has to leave. Anarumo has been hot and cold, so I could see that being 50/50. RE: SI Report - Bengals planning "major shake up" to Taylor's staff - Nately120 - 12-31-2020 This needs to happen, but I'm a bit concerned who is going to elect to work under a HC with such a low win percentage who got his prior assistants to face the firing squad.

Didn't he fill in during the Washington game? I'd really like this team to get an experienced D Coordinator.

Worth pointing out that while Callahan has 11 years of coaching experience, his only experience as OC is with Bengals starting last year.

I imagine people who are interested in potentially becoming HC would be interested in coming here, as they could see this as Taylor's last chance. And if he can't deliver in 2021, they could have an inside track to being HC in 2022.

If year year results in them moving on from Taylor, would anyone feel comfortable with Callahan, Duffner or Simmons as the Head Coach? I like Simmons, but there has to be a reason he hasn't moved on to a head coaching gig somewhere, pro or college. As for the other two, we'd be in the same situation now with a young inexperienced guy at the helm.

RE: SI Report - Bengals planning "major shake up" to Taylor's staff - Synric - 12-31-2020 I hope they look at a guy with experience as a run game coordinator. Alot of the run designs are ugh.

It give me the sad sinking feeling that Lou, who is a coordinator, not an assistant will be staying.

RE: SI Report - Bengals planning "major shake up" to Taylor's staff - THE PISTONS - 12-31-2020 It's funny...they have blunt conversations about jobs and they start winning. If they're going to make major assistant changes...why not fire Taylor. RE: SI Report - Bengals planning "major shake up" to Taylor's staff - Yojimbo - 12-31-2020 My list: 1. Turner 2. Lou 3.
