Teams with worse talent get better results. Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Dak Prescott, and Jared Goff don't have better weapons than Joe Burrow does, yet they've had better scoring offenses than the Bengals each of the last two years, 3 years for the first 3 of those 4. Heck, Lamar Jackson is currently heading an offense that is a higher ranked scoring offense than Joe Burrow has ever had.
Either Zac Taylor is getting far less results than he should with the talent we have, or the talent we have isn't anywhere near as good as we like to say. I still think Joe Burrow is the 2nd best QB in the league and that we have the best WR trio in the league, so I am going to believe the former is true.
I stopped reading after the first sentence. Worse talent? 11 players play. Not just the receivers. Only 7 teams are better at points per play than Cincy the last 3 games against the hardest 3 game stretch of any team. End of story. And I just learned this: when Zac took over the Bengals were one of the most penalized teams. From his first game until today they are the least penalized during his tenure.
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.
