I see Akins leaving or on IR most of next yr. Need an infusion of edge and DT talent/leadership in offseason in a bad way. I actually see this as priority #1.
I like what Covington and Hunt have brought and I think they may be good to keep as depth.....other then that Im open to a complete overhaul
Hubbard is a good player. And should certainly be on the keep list.

Tem Lukaba(sp?) got a college co-ordinator job out of being the Bengals' LB coach in 2019, so anything is possible.

The good old realible source, to be honest it's rare in NFL there no coaching changes in 2 years especially with a new HC.. notice that realible source had nothing to say about HC change which I have predicted all season.

Do you really need a "reliable source" to know that a team that has managed to win all of 5 games over 2 seasons is going to have to make at least 1 coaching change so their fanbase doesn't go completely apeshit?
What's next?
"TylerDragon has heard from a "reliable source" that the Bengals plan on drafting both offensive and defensive players in the 2021 draft."
"TylerDragon has heard from a "reliable source" that the Bengals plan on signing at least one free agent in 2021."
"TylerDragon has heard from a "reliable source" that Bengals will release one veteran in the offseason."

This!
We're handed such a bad product. Can you imagine a mutual fund that performed bottom 10% of all mutual funds giving all of its managers a 3rd year?

It will be so exciting to find out it’s the assistant TE’s coach...

You know what we really need is an assistant D-line coach that is a pass rushing specialist.

Some of it is talent and scheme. Some of these guys dont fit the scheme.

And some of it is coaching. Go look at our list of defensive coaches and tell me which one has ever been an edge pass rusher. There is nobody teaching our guys how to setup olinemen or new moves or proper hand placement. We have a DT and a bunch of LB and DB guys on the staff.

Turner no doubt. His OL has been the weakest link on the team for 2 years and they got Burrow hurt, and everyone saw it coming except his dumbass apparently. That dude needs to be gone yesterday imo.

Wade Phillips for Lou would make the most sense. I don't think the players got along with Lou and that caused a lot of ill will toward the coaching staff. Turner should go but he is boys with Zack.

I feel like Lou is safe if Taylor is.

Hell yes, in a heartbeat. Turner really stinks and Alexander actually had some production during his time here. I would prefer someone new but if I had to choose between the two, it is an easy choice.

Alexander was actually well respected around the league, too. Turner not so much...

I don't think alexander was as bad as some thought, but I think he benefited from the days when we drafted worth a crap. He had some standouts, but I think that was more the player and less the coach. When we started drafting guys like og, his lines weren't very good.

I feel like the opponents adjusted too. The 3rd quarter is this teams waterloo.

They didn't score in the 3rd quarter on Monday either... Did they? That awful.
At least they were able to maintain against Pittsburgh during the 3rd quarter. I fully expected the Steelers to come outta the half swingin', and they did. I still thought we were gonna lose that game by that point.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.
