Almost as official is a welcome to his Offensive Coordinator of the Callahan Family he is very familiar with at Nebraska, Brian Callahan. Not as official is Defensive Coordinator and how well Taylor does will depend on his choice here because Taylor and Callahan are Offense, but Bengals in dire need of huge Defense upgrade. Even Austin fired and Marvin taking over D still had D not all that hot, so the new D Coordinator has his work cut out for him. Especially the too many linebackers who can't pass cover, a huge weakness in the NFL wide open passing game due to rule changes. The secondary is not very good either. We don't have cover corners and the safeties are mediocre at best. Teams like Chiefs and Saints ate us alive, but so did Tampa and Cleveland. So Welcome Zac Taylor and Brian Callahan, but please bring in a good solid Defensive Coordinator.
Bates is better than mediocre, and Williams led the team in INTs this season with 5. Otherwise, I agree with you. They need a really experienced and good DC to right that ship.
