You’ve got to give him at least the better part of this year. It’s taken a few years to rebuild this team to fit his style. We’ve got enough pieces now that we should see real improvement but sometimes teams get better as the season goes on. With all the new players this year there are bound to be some growing pains early. Good news is most of that should be on D where we were already terrible so it shouldn’t be any worse than last year.
There’s really little to no benefit moving on from him after a few games. This team isn’t winning the Super Bowl this year so let’s see how it plays out and make a decision at the end of the year. Not like replacing him early is going to magically make us contenders. if he stinks it up we get a high draft pick for a new coach.
Plus I don’t want this FO falling in love with a temporary coach and hiring them if they win a few games instead of doing a full search and bringing in the best candidate. If we do end up looking for a new coach I believe the position will be more attractive to outside hires than ever before with Burrow and the weapons on offense and a FO that has been spending money lately in FA.
All of that said i still like Zac and believe he can be a successful coach here. This will be a big year for him to prove that though.
