If you think all 31 other teams are constantly firing coaches during the season then you don't understand the NFL. It happens but it is not near as common as you claim.

I was never CONVINCED Zac would not be back for third season.

They are often proven wrong, butt hey never learn from their mistakes. Start slow, or have incredible ineptitude based on his play calls that were not audibled out of, or a play made off script like the one TD to Uzomah that Burrow hit on a scramble. Take away those plays and this offense is dead last in everything relevant. The plays that are being called are not working. With the talent on the field, that is absurd. He needs to get more aggressive early and attack the weakness of the other team. Today, that is the secondary. I'm not the "fire the coach" and "coach of the year" guy in the same thread and I don't like gameday threads for that reason....that, and because my dad is here for games and we are interacting. Don't want to be on a phone or computer. I am sure it is entertaining, though, as twitter can be for overreactions.

And he groomed his daughter to pick up where he’s left off. ZT should do it himself. Nagy did that and acknowledged it made him a better coach.

Not sure what you mean by "all burrow". Burrow was coached to audible to that play based on what the defense showed him. The screen was an choice he was given to audible to. What makes you think that one audible was different from all the others?

Unless we shit the bed Zac is probably coming back. What id like to see in that scenario is hiring a experienced OF and letting them call the plays while Zac focuses on head coaching duties, like a Dabo Swinney. He’s not a terrible head coach but he’s not much of an offensive guru

Still, after saying all of that, I'm forever: "Fire Taylor!!"

There are play calls, options within that play call, and then if a QB makes a check to an entirely different play. Yes, Sunset, that is his job. But it is also the job of the HC to call plays worth a crap. Moose Johnston said today about ZT something to the effect of "I was very surprised when he said Detroit was keeping people deep to take away our passing game, so we did a lot of two TE sets and tried to run the ball". He then went on to say how surprised he was that ZT didn't just say: "This is what we are, I invested a #5 overall draft pick on a WR, and just try to stop us", but he adjusted his play calls to their sets. ZT let three UDFA corners change his offense. And despite a huge pick that gave them the ball back and decent field position all half, they managed just 14 points the entire game. Before I am accused of being a Negative Nancy on the day of a win, I look at decisions like that and think "that didn't kill them against Detroit, but how on earth do they plan to win against a team like Baltimore with those dumbass decisions?" Sorry if I want more for this team that is absolutely wasting a Championship-caliber defense.

Bengals lose: "were never going anywhere with zt! What a chump!"
Bengals win: "if zt doesn't win the next game, they gotta fire him! What a loser! We barely won!' You guys are great.

Yes, but the zero blitz audible is a bad example. The coaches have no idea what the defense is going to do when sending the play in. That's why there are audibles built in each call based on what the defense shows pre snap. As soon as the QB sees zero, he has to pick that up and get into the play to beat it. This is every game, every Sunday and not unique to Cincinnati. "Better send those refunds..." |
