0-16 for any coach should put termination on the table, whether or not they have the in-breds we have running their franchise or not. However, I do get the argument that some slack should be granted due to implementing some "plan", no matter how ill-conceived and moronic it may seem at present. Perhaps the morons in charge will give Taylor a chance to acquire non-trash players this go around in FA. A decent OL, a real linebacker? Probably not, because Bengals and all, but still anything can happen, I guess.
Here's what I'd do if Zac manages to acheive the truly astounding and spectacular feat of embarrassing this franchise more than it's owners ever have by going 0-16. I'd let him get his quarterback and continue to run the O.
That would be it. I would immediately shit can Louie Slapnuts after week 17. He sucks and is the worst coordinator here since Zampese. He's worse that Austin. Totally out of his depth. I hate even hearing his name. Also tired of looking at his mouth-open lost look whenever he's shown on TV. Get him the hell out as the blood sacrifice.
Then, I hire a DC with head coaching chops to replace the turd. Del Rio, Ryan, whoever. Any semi-competent defensive minded ex HC not named Marvin Lewis will do. I might even try to poach Gregg Williams if possible.
Use the new DC to let Zac know that his leash is short. There's nobody here to take over if they fire Zac now. Get somebody. He's been given a lot of leeway with staff and play calling. 0-16 should remove some of that. Get a real presence in the locker room to either mentor or usurp him. Or not. You could totally just put the same roster out there as the last 2 years with the same staff as this one and act like things are going to get better. That's the Bengal Way, after all.
