Good coaching should be getting the most from their players, putting them in position to succeed (scheme) and the overall team performing greater than the sum of their parts.

I look at the Denver Broncos and see a team where the coaching is getting the post from their players... They lost 3 first round picks trading for R. Wilson and Sean Payton, have $80m in dead cap (largely because of R. Wilson), are starting a rookie QB and their best receiver is Courtland Sutton. and they're 6 - 5.

Look what Harbaugh did with Herbert and the Chargers. They lost a lot of solid key players too.

It matters - for sure.

It does for sure .....but I feel the defense is what's hurting this team the most. Rex Ryan said the talent is pitiful, to put it nicely, so it seems the situation in Cincinnati is a little bit different. The Chargers have some pretty good players on their defense. Herbert needed an offensive minded coach to help his progression.

Brutal man, just brutal.

Taylor is losing my confidence. It is a combination of things that go awry but ultimately, the players are not playing up to their ability. Points to coaching, preparation, and mental attitude. They have to fire DL and OL coaches over bye week. Players are not developing like they should.

Agreed but I will add that we have seen the O struggle as well and no one is going to convince me that the ridiculous talent of Burrow, Chase and Tee (when playing) wouldn’t put up even more monstrous numbers almost every game with a legit HC.

These schemes are often dog crap and the O doesn’t wake up or play for 1-2 quarters more often than not.

This talent is being short-changed badly.

While I'm not opposed to this, you have to have a replacement available/

A big problem with the offense is the IOL....but you're not wrong either.

If we didn't win all the Super Bowlz, it would be the broken type Broken Type:

"Fire HC....has lost the locker-room....Team has given up on him.....we'd be much better with that other coach"

[Bengalstripes9]

Andy Reid would have had the same success with any of the following QB’s:
Josh Allen
Joe Burrow
Tom Brady

There are a few others I think he could have won one Super Bowl with.

[*bfine32*]

Thread makes me ask a question.

Why don't HC's go on the open market? You've never seen a HC turn down an extension to test Free Agency.

The best we get from our coaches is they don’t lose the game for us. As long as this coaching staff is here, I will continue to not watch. Unless they start off 8-0 or something. I’m not crazy.

I’ll settle for 2-0 with Zac.
