Every year Paul Dehner of The Athletic does a survey to get the pulse of the fans. You do not have to be subscriber to participate

Thank you for posting. Some of those questions were tough and either needed other options or more options.
Is there a way to see the results of previous years surveys? Do we know if the Front Office has ever looked at them (or admitted to it). I'm betting they have.

I'm sure someone with the team has seen them but what impact, if any, is unknown.
Paul will compare this year's results to last year's but as far as I know, the only place to see the previous results is via The Athletic. You could try emailing or tweetin/x at him to see if he'll share them otherwise

Thanks for posting it, Pally, as he blocked me in 2019 (for asking a legitimate question that he clearly took the wrong way, which wasn't my intention at all) and can't see anything of his.

It’s out now. Copied this.. These results reflect the major theme discussed in the overall confidence. Tobin and Taylor were the two big winners last year. A second consecutive deep playoff run left an effect of unquestioned trust in their process and decision-making. Last year peeled back a decent chunk of the benefit of the doubt.
Tobin took a slightly larger hit than Taylor, who like Brian Callahan finally getting his shot with Tennessee, gained some respect for the success of Jake Browning and keeping the team relevant despite losing Burrow.
Yet, there will always be gravity between their two trends. The bottom line is the Dax Hill-Jessie Bates debacle leaves a dent. Myles Murphy not playing much of a role as a first-round rookie (no matter how much stock you are buying on his future) leaves a dent. DJ Reader leaving and sounding frustrated about the process leaves a dent. None is necessarily egregious, but they add up. In Tobin’s case, they add up to 30.8 percent of his five votes disappearing.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
