And no one ran Zimmer out of ATL. He along with all of the staff was let go along when Petrino quit on the team.

Zimmer had the 29th rated defense in Atlanta the fans wanted his head. Before the great Frank Pollock got to Dallas he did a year in Oakland where they were 28th in rushing yards, although they were good at pass protection so I guess that was cool. Changes of scenery yielding better results for coaches is nothing new in the NFL.

It bothers me more that Zac spoke of character in his presser and to me Turner does not represent what I would like to see on the coaching staff character wise

wont hold martin against him... martin was to soft for the nfl...

What a bunch of ***** drama queens. Hint--jumping to conclusions is not a form of exercise.

At least someone is excited about the Turner hire.

Gotcha, thanks.  To be clear, I'm not railing against the hire, per se, I just don't like Jimbo Fisher.

......and he has been noted as wanting to kill Incognito and another person.  He ain't exactly stable himself.

You’d rather have the guy that hand picked Og and Fisher, and judges players on how they open ketchup bottles? C’mon man...

Yeah, I'd rather have me than Piano Man.

I do not think the Bengal's Front Office including figure head Mike Brown would sign off on any coach that was not fully vetted.  

I'm not asking for Mother Theresa. Give me a guy who can communicate and have these guys buying what he's selling. As you said, he's socially inept. Not sure who that'll work out, but I have a hard time thinking he can get the best out of our line with how he approaches teaching them.

But there's more that goes behind the scenes? The front office vetted this before hiring/keeping him?

This came from PFT? The same place that said Hue would be the new coach, then said Simmons, the same place that suggested co-Head Coaches. Well, with their level of accuracy in this process, of course they should be believed.

**** that. If Turner sucks he sucks. We can replace him. Bringing Alexander back would be a as bad as keeping Marvin.

I’ll give this staff a chance.

[McC]

We have to have a new coach with new ideas, who will think outside the box, who has a clear plan all his own, but if he doesn't hire the coaches we want him to, we will lose our minds. Is that how it works?

I view this at worse as a guy to use until bill is off contract in washington

Very good point.

Exactly.  Like I said, I'd rather have me than PA, and I haven't been on a sideline in over 20 years....lol.  Did I mention I don't like Jimbo Fisher?

Good point.  Like I said in my first reply, could be a one year rental.  If he works out, then great.

what's the worse that can happen guys we dump this entire season and have a shot at a great QB next year?

Zac Taylor is expected to add Jim Turner to his first coaching staff, Paul Dehner of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Turner, in his second stint as Texas A&M’s offensive line coach, has a close relationship with Taylor, who is Mike Sherman’s son-in-law. Turner was the Aggies’ offensive line coach in 2008 when Taylor began his coaching career in College Station under Sherman.

Taylor and Turner also were together with the Dolphins and briefly at the University of Cincinnati.

Turner coached under Kevin Sumlin for two seasons at A&M and then Jimbo Fisher last season.

He was the offensive line coach at Miami during the bullying scandal involving offensive linemen Jonathan Martin and Richie Incognito. Turner also served a three-week suspension at A&M for offensive powerpoint slides used during a football clinic for women.

Turner replaces Frank Pollack, who was fired after one year with the Bengals.

Hope he learned from his screw ups and from Sherman cause i don't like his resume compared to Bill Callahan or Mike Sherman.

Damn, this to go along with no Del Rio makes me wonder about Taylor.

Guess he just wants people he is comfortable with, that is okay as long as they are the best.

Believe Del Rio was the best DC out there followed by Fox. Believed Bill Callahan was the best OL coach followed by Sherman.

Sorry man, it is only PFT anyways. Just jumping to conclusions at this point.

I will let it play out. Have to trust in Taylor, he is making his decisions and that is good.

Like you said, it is PFT.  We don't even know if it's true yet.   /i haven't seen any verification yet.  Has anyone seen it anywhere else?
