- Send a letter through physical mail (no email or social media)
- Don't attend games in person
The latter is what affects his pocketbook and what he also notices during games. He can physically see the fan displeasure by people not being there.
Burrow was the draw for the start of this season (but limited due to COVID restrictions).
But the team didn't get wins even with him there.
This season might be an even bigger disappointment than last given the expectation of improvement.
I think ultimately there will be some skepticism (and thus less fans) if Taylor is kept. However, I think the Bengals might be able to get SOME fans back if they replace Turner and/or Anarumo. But it probably has to be with someone who the fans know has a proven track record.
Failing organizations often hire an expert to audit their performance to get advice on what they are doing wrong.
If reality TV had a show called "NFL Franchise Rescue", the Bengals would be the first show.
The entire organization is rotten. That is a much bigger problem than Zack Taylor who might have succeeded if he had been hired by the Steelers. He was doomed to failure before he started.
