Lou’s Future in the Jungle

The Jags had back-to-back years with top-5 draft picks and now they're in the playoffs. Obviously it helps when you find a QB with one of your picks, like the Bengals did with Burrow.
The Jets had back-to-back years with top-5 draft picks and were 7-4 before collapsing because of injuries and missing on their QB.
The Browns had back-to-back years with top-5 draft picks and it led to them winning a playoff game despite missing on their QB.

That's 4 teams (including the Bengals) in just in the last 6 years. It's not all that uncommon. It's no guarantee, but it helps a TON.

The Jets, Giants, and Lions went through coaches and were much slower turning it around. You say you can’t measure Volson or CTB I’d disagree. Currently you’d have to say they are a success. Comments about minimizing the draft picks just because they were high and the subsequent ones at 33 etc aren’t a sure fire. They’ve earned this turnaround and just crediting Zac for changing the culture shortsighted. Geez he’s 3-0 vs Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes. But I’d guess you could say Joe Burrow hasn’t played enough to declare him one of the best QB in the NFL. He’s not won a SB he’s not been All -Pro all the time or has he once? Sorry my eyes tell me he is.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
