Lap on Taylor

Dave Shula's pre-Bengals coaching experience was not that dissimilar to Taylor's:

• Miami Dolphins (1982–1985) (WR)
• Miami Dolphins (1985–1987) (WR/QB)
• Miami Dolphins (1988) (QB)
• Dallas Cowboys (1989–1990) (OC/QB)
• Cincinnati Bengals (1991) (WR)
  

Hiring an unproven coach is a crap shoot.  But I don't mind that we are taking a chance.  Aren't we all tired of same ole same ole?
