Then we lost our best two players (Boling, Glenn) off an already poor O-line and replaced them with scrubs. That has crippled our entire offense.
Not unless the front office shows it is willing to bring in some talent upgrades. The Bengals are not as bad of a franchise as some of you try to claim. Marvin Lewis had a winning record against the rest of the league and made the playoffs more than most other teams in the league. Decent coaches would be glad to come here if they knew the front office was willing to help them win.
But if we fire Taylor without ever giving him a chance and ask the next coach to win with this current roster no decent coach will come here.
marvin lewis gained the trust of MB over his long stay here something Taylor doesn't seem to have with the FO and a reason some of us wanted to keep marvin around in some higher capacity...
We already don't have a Decent Coach... Nothing on ZT's resume other than the fact he worked for the Rams HC stood out as much of a positivie. we have an almost all rookie coaching staff as well... That ZT apparently hand picked.
If we fail its on him. We were never allowed to use the excuse of injuries for marvin. Also the better the coach the better change good FA prospects will be willing to come play for that coach.
We could give ZT another full year but if he cant show any improvement this year it will just waste 1 more year before we can turn the corner.
1st Step he needs to hand off playcalling duties.
im willing to give dude a chance but his game management is bad as well. He has to so some positive to get another season and so far there has been nothing positive to review. outside his offense game 1
