Offensive players Zac has a big say and the position coaches. Lou has less say on defense than Zac on offense but still a lot. True in free agency as well. But they’ve missed on Myles and Dax in that it’s year 3 and haven’t had a typical #1 impact.

We did a shuffle pass to Stanley Morgan a couple yrs ago to try and tie a game and failed and lost. After the game Morgan said he had never ran the play before as it was supposed to be Boyd but he had left with injury. The GreenBay game in 2020 we did the whole settle for a 50+ field goal in overtime but add in the fact both kickers had missed kicks and was breezy. Again these examples seem silly but they both result in game losses.
Another thing the Bengals need to change is paying the picks they hit on and early as it will save them money. I say that because a guy like Dax we know we aren't keeping Bates and turn a position that isn't a need into a pick made on need instead of talent because we knew we had to replace Bates.
