What would it take to get Zac Taylor fired?

Best I remember, Lou wasn't very happy losing Bates, Bell, Reader, etc. I'd definitely not say he was complicit in getting rid of talent and not replacing it on his side of the ball, lol. You think Zac wanted to lose Tee Higgins, and maybe Chase? 

I meant complicit in the sense that they are a result of the way MB runs things. Both ZT and Lou are here to suck it up and accept losing pieces because people with more stellar resumes wouldn't play ball.

Also feel like this sets us up for some big free agency spending? So I feel like there will atleast be some blow back with that. Just not sure how we respond with such high hopes going into the season.

I’d imagine all wanting to be on the same page before the press conferences.

A cheaper option to present itself.

I gotcha....you have a good point there.

Also, his contract to be up. Brown will not let go of a coach and still pay him. Just sit back and enjoy the ride. We just went to a superbowl. What more do you want.

Two bad seasons in a row or Burrow and Zac beef.

In all honesty; I think Zac is an underrated coach and underrated play caller. I don't think he needs to be fired and I don't think he is the problem with this organization.

The problem is lack of talent and lack mismanagement of the roster.

Nobody a bigger fan of Zac than me but these slow starts are what they are. Calling a spade a spade here.

Agreed. That being said, I fully expect to see us play starters in at least 2 preseason games next year, among other changes.

I'm ready for a new HC.

My feelings on Zac are weird


I like him as a coach of a trash team

Like him as a guy who can at least change your culture


Iv never really respected his X’s and O’s mindset and feel as if he tried to do too much hard shit on offense


But i think he top tier in culture and he’s a players coach and i like that



The issue is when you lack the players the players coach mindset turns bad





So 2 things can be true


Zac can be a solid coach who deserves to be a HC in the NFL but i am also allowed to feel he’s not right for this team.


The fact that he hasn’t sat Burrow down and told him we aren’t running 90% out the shotgun kinda tells me all i need to know. Burrow is a beast but he’s a young QB who hasn’t won shit. The fact that you can’t go to him and tell him what you want means you have no balls.



Idk


I don’t think he’s a bad coach but i think we may have “aged out” of Zac and Lou for that matter

I would say none of the above, only if he slept with Katie Blackburn's husband.  And thats only a slighttttttt chance!

I get we are only 3 games in.. but there is nothing in the team I see that gives me hope for a better outcome.. the 0-3 is just validating that premonition so far.... what is very disappointing is how fast we are going down the roller coaster again... I was hoping to see more consistency.. Other than Marvin's last 2 seasons, Marvin was ironically more consistent with the team..
I want more consistency   I get no pleasure seeing the squeelers being contenders again.

The Steelers are pretenders.

0-4 with the 4th coming against Andy should do it.

I think I'd probably give up two first round picks for Tomlin right now.

Listen to this crap. The Steelers pretenders? Sure are with 6 Lombardi's out of 8 shots. 8 Super Bowl appearances with 6 wins. And 3-0 to start this year with Tomlin never having had a losing season there, yep pretenders all right.     They have literally OWNED the Bengals for decades. I know this will hurt many feelings here but the Bengals aren't in the Steelers or the Chiefs class.

You have it backwards..The Bengals are the pretenders.

[Housh]

If were talking 2025 offseason then it would take an act of God


Even if we suck hed get at least another year just based off previous success.

You might be confused, this is Jungle Noise, Steelers fans aren't supposed to be posting in here.

You know, the Steelers who... 
Tried to get upset at "worst 11-0 team ever" but then lost 4 of their final 5 before getting spanked by the Browns out out of the Wild Card round.
Haven't won a single playoff game in 7 years. 
Have only won a single Divisional playoff game in 13 years. 
Would have missed the playoffs in 5 of the last 6 years if not for the addition of the BS 7th seed.
