It seems to me what happened was they hit a home run on back to back top 5 picks (one at the most important position), got gifted with a LT who shouldn't have still been available just outside the top 10, finally went after legit free agents, and stopped hiring cheap labor (Burfict and Pacman) that cost us dearly in our pursuit of success. The organization also just randomly joined the 21st century this year too... Better media and fan relations, and what Zac did at the bars this past Saturday is pretty cool.

I don't think many people recall this, but when Zac was hired, he brought along the largest staff ever assembled in Cincinnati. This included analytic guys, an offensive assistant dedicated to watching replays/clock for timely challenges on GameDay, and by default, more eyes to scout. He definitely improved on what Marvin had done.
