1 ) They knew they were hiring him really early in his career and it would take time to develop him.
2 ) Close losses are wins. (Really not, but some people think that.)
3 ) Burrow's injury. They won't want to change schemes when Burrow can't practice over the offseason.
4 ) Not wanting to pay 2 Coaching Staffs
5 ) Zac goes with the flow and doesn't push back on things they want him to do.
6 ) Burrow did look good as a passer. They may choose to ignore a bunch of flaws and just look at the passing.
7 ) They hired Zac. Firing him would be admitting they made a mistake.
8 ) I think they might view players playing hard as a endorsement for Zac
9 ) They might not want to cave in to fan pressure. They might want to show us they are right and we are wrong.

Generally they view late season wins as a coach turning the corner. Katie Blackburn sent out a bulk email around halfway through the season that talked about how every year, a team catches fire the 2nd half of the year. Obviously with the weak schedule we played, they thought we might win a bunch of games and used that as marketing fodder. Obviously that hasn't happened.

I believe that's the biggest thing, ego.
