Here, the debate is IF he's brought back for Year 3 and it looks like he will be.
Holy s**t...this is playing out almost exactly how Hue Jackson's regime did in Cleveland.
Hue won just 1 game in his first two seasons with CLE, but he was kept for the third season because the front office believed the team just had no talent. Their teams were much more devoid of talent than what Taylor's been working with.
They gave him 8 more games into the third season until they finally said enough is enough after he went 2-5-1. They not only got Landry but they also drafted Baker, Chubb, and Njoku in Hue's final season. Yet they just couldn't put together hardly any wins.
One would think all the franchises in the league noticed what went down in CLE during that time and would have learned to never follow that same sequence...except the Bengals? Could we be seeing the Hue Jackson scenario play out in Cincy?
