He only needs a tie to tie last years winning percentage and we are only five game in. Dude is killing it. ( Added just in case)

Would be surprised if MB does anything, but I agree that he isn't the right one. Was not big on him when he came, and thought last year was semi-excusable. Problem is: who wants to come coach for the Bengals? As special as it is to be an NFL head coach, reputations and shots can be ruined if you pick the wrong time/team.

Let Simmons take over as interim HC and let Callahan call the plays as the OC.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.

They have Joe Burrow. And even if AJ departs, they still have a dangerous WR room, as well as Joe Mixon. The offensive line could be raised to competent with this draft and/or a few surgical free agent moves. The defense has largely been serviceable despite a ridiculous number of injuries to key contributors. This team should be 4-2. A good coach could see that this team is close.

It's worth noting that right after ATL removes their HC, they get a win the very next game.
Same thing happened with HOU, and they just barely lost to undefeated Titans, taking them to OT. Would have won that game in regulation if the defense was able to prevent that last-second TD to AJ Brown.
Not saying the Bengals will get a win right after making a coaching change, but it couldn't really hurt.

Yeah, I was thinking more about the front office/ownership.

I am trying to think of what Zac brings to the table, and the only thing I can think of is his consistent ability to be not Marvin.

It's a fair point. And I'm sure a lot of talented folks would say thanks but no thanks. Then again there are only so many head coaching gigs and it's hard to see how anyone could be worse than Taylor has been over the last season plus.

LMAO! Anyone can be "not Marvin".
Marvin, even though I do fully believe it was time for him to go, was the person most responsible for the team having a winning record while he was here. No prior coach under Mike Brown was able to do that and, apparently, no one since Marvin can either.
It just show how awful Mike Brown and family are and have been since the great Paul Brown passed away and left his legacy to his family.

Zac continues to say dumb and pointless shit in his conferences. Completely clueless.

I don't think we were lucky when we were up 21-0. Sweet Lou shit his pants when Rivers punched his defense in the mouth, he had no answer.
ZT shit his pants when his defense couldn't stop my dead grandmother.
I do agree with the bolded.

In defense of Lou D played well enough to win regardless of Zac's decision to kick on both 4th and 1's

The last time they lost being up 21-0 was Shulas last game....Will they have the balls to pull the plug?

Yes but I think we had some established success under Marvin by then. They both sting, but at least you knew Marvin could correct the issue. Zac is the worst coach in the league. Maybe 31st besides Gabe.
