Proven coaches see he's not ready to be a HC, so they turn you down. He hires his friends...who have no coordinator experience too. Then, he tries to copy schemes and practices from a legit NFL Team like the Rams including doing an easy training camp.
In games the playcalling is horrible. Players regress. And deep down, the players know the staff is terrible.
Also, glaring needs aren't addressed in free agency. And the team has very few scouts.
It's just a perfect storm of ineptness.
This team on the entire staff...our of the HC and 2 coordinators has 5 games of NFL coordinator experience going into this year. None of those guys had any experience preparing a team.
Honestly, my best case to fire the staff and start over is so we don't ruin the #1 overall pick. Bring a guy like Mike McCarthy in and let him hire a good OC and DC.
You make excellent points about the lack of experience by the coaching staff. The only thing the Bengals have going right for them is the Special Teams and that coach is one of the best in the league.
At first the ZT hire seems liked a good move especially after the first game in the season where the Bengals out played the Seahawks. Soon after that game though the team simply fell apart and I blame the coaches for this as they simply don't seem to know how to game plan appropriately.
