Starting to question why any of us were excited about ZT to begin with.. Seems the only reason was he wasnt marvin... 

I was excited when ZT was hired, I won't lie.  He was young, brought energy and enthusiasm.  He was coming from a team that had just made the Superbowl and had what looked like a great culture in the building.  Players that trusted each other, coaches who were 100% onboard with the plan.  I thought Zac could bring that to the Bengals.  His previous playcalling failures didn't really bother me honestly because I expected he'd hire a staff around him where it wouldn't matter.  

None of what I was excited about and thought could have made him great has ended up being the case.  But no one knew, for certain, this would be the outcome.  People were worried about him not being an offensive genius the same way people are screaming for Bienemy because they're hoping he will be.  But that's not the skillset we needed from Zac or any HC.  What happened is that he came and failed to be a leader.  And that's what the team needed.  And what it appears ZT will never, ever be.
