The (hopeful) good news is the FO has now seen what a change in coaching can result in.
Taylor was able to take a rapidly declining Marvin Lewis team to true contender and Super Bowl in just a few years.
Sometimes the juice is worth the squeeze, and the Bengals shouldn't be afraid of pulling the trigger on coaches to try to get better.
Unfortunately, I think it will take multiple consecutive losing seasons to get to that point of Taylor himself, but some coaching changes can be justified after this season.

Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
