You had a first-time HC who was also an inexperienced play caller trying to coach a team that had a lot of veterans playing a certain way.
Had the Bengals brought in a HC with more experience, perhaps they could have had more success.
I'm happy that there's been progress, although it wasn't as fast as I'd wanted.
If Taylor can get at least one more win this year, I'm ok with keeping him.
Next year there will be an expectation of being one of the better teams in the AFC though.
Playoff appearance and either a playoff win or first-round bye.
Anything else will be a letdown.
Now THIS is a fair and objective take. I 100 percent agree with all of it.
