The thing is you only know this with the benefit of hindsight. I doubt Taylor will be as successful as any of those coaches, but the truth is we can't tell yet.
Taylor was dealt a terrible hand. He was given a weak roster to start with and then lost two of his better starters (Green, Boling) plus his number one draft pick before training camp even started. He was given no help in free agency, and struggled to put together a decent coaching staff. Neither Taylor nor either of his Coordinators had ever entered a training camp as anything more than a position coach.
There is no way you can judge a coach properly in a situation like this.
I say we bring in Jay Gruden as OC and Marvin Lewis as DC then sign a couple of decent starters in free agency.
