He always brings the team into the season unprepared and in a hole. He never can do anything with the defense apparently. We spend more than almost everyone in the league on defensive players and apparently he's a bad evaluater for those players as well. Sure, he does well with a top 2 QB and the best reciever in the league with another #1 along side him. I have no doubt that any coach could have the offense firing with those players. Zac has underperformed and underwhelmed since he got here.
I think Zac is on the hot seat big time after these firings. I agree with a lot of the bad you say about Zac here Brownshoe, the slow starts
have to stop, the predictability has to stop, we need to stop sabotaging our OL being in the Shotgun all the time. A lot of this has to be on
the HC and that is Zac Taylor. He is without a doubt carried by Joe, Ja'Marr and Tee a lot of the time and this Offense has been this good in
spite of him a lot of the time pretty sure.
But one good thing I will say about Zac is that his team's fight late in the year more than any HC we have had. This is a very good thing and
we are continually one of the least penalized teams in the NFL.
I am okay with keeping him around for one more year because of these points. We all knew Zac would be back didn't we?
I am just happy we weren't complacent and waited to fire these guys that needed to be fired.

He got hurt very early, and it was only about a month ago that they stated it was a whole lot worse than anyone let on about, but he chose to try and play through it instead of missing the entire season. If he can get healthy during the offseason, I think he still has a lot of tread left.
Yeah, Sam could very well get healthy and be a decent backup Edge for us. He works his ass off. You cannot say he is washed just because he
was injured this season. I didn't like him starting when hurt but this was on Lou pretty sure, not Sam.
