Tony Dungy was a successful DC...we should just replace ZT with the best defensive-minded coach a talent like Burrow can lure here if that's the case.

So ***** sick of this. Need to bunker for a while. Can't stand this shit.
Stop over reacting. Tell us how his play calling sucks? You 100% sure it wasn't execution or maybe the Chargers made a good play?

This was heartbreaking.. I thought after gio got to the 3 we are gonna win.. just wow.. I hate Randy Bullock.. It should have never came down to that though. That wasn't a penalty on AJ. Zack does seem lost..

Let's imagine a hypothetical world where Taylor were to be fired tomorrow. Does a single team in the league entertain him as a serious option for a replacement OC?

We should've done the smart thing for once and hired Joe Brady when we drafted Burrow.

We win that game if AJ doesn't push off or gets away with the PI....

Maybe...but HC? No way.

Taylor is on the hot seat. He doesn't have a successful offense to call on and no one on the offensive coaching staff has called plays.

I disagree with the the OP on this one.
Plays were there to be made it but they didn't finish them.plus this team seems so connected that I'm not sure firing him would be a good thing.

People greatly overestimated the amount of talent Burrow has around him. Lou and the D kept them in it, but critical errors down the stretch doomed them.
True, I like what I saw from the D though.

0 timeouts to work with when you’re trying to come back at the end of the game is not doing your rookie QB any favors. You have to manage the game better than that. And Burrow was not kept clean. They were still getting a ton of pressure. Tyrod seemed to have all day compared to Burrow.

Absolutely not. Having lunch with Sean McVay a couple times does not qualify you to be a HC.
We should have hired Eric Bieniemy.

Not a chance in hell.
He wouldn't even get an interview right now.

And hired a HC that was actually ready for the job...
And drafted an OT early instead of a WR...

They did score a bunch of points...
He has to be better than ZT as a play caller.

Yep, Burrow was pushing a rock uphill so to speak. No overall #1 pick is going into a great situation (unless you trade up) but Burrow is certainly taking his lumps so far.

Just watched postgame interview. Not the same effervescent optimistic ZT.
It appears our little ZT is pissed and having trouble hiding it.
Who or what will get the HC's wrath??

I know this is a rhetorical question, but I doubt he gets a job as an OC NEXT year..... What has he shown as an offensive play caller? I’ll wait.
