The Cincinnati Bengals might make a speedy turnaround if they fire Zac Taylor.
With a 4-23-1 record as head coach, Zac Taylor should put the Cincinnati Bengals in damage control mode and start to rebuild.
There is already enough debate on the internet about whether or not Zac Taylor ought to be fired. It says it all—four victories in nearly two full seasons. The Cincinnati Bengals head office’s real decision to make the trade is the sole unanswered question. If they do, it is possible for the franchise to recover faster than most people believe.
Over the past year or so, the Bengals have made some good decisions.
Taylor has taken Marvin Lewis’ spot, but Cincinnati’s cupboard isn’t entirely empty. Joe Burrow was drafted by them. If he can heal and get back to his pre-injury state, only time will tell.
Should he succeed, the Bengals would possess a franchise quarterback, an essential component for any NFL team. Just seeing Burrow pass the ball to players like Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins makes defensive coordinators perspire. Cincinnati will also be in a great position to use the draft to bolster their offensive line.
Although I do not support Lou Anarumo’s retention as defensive coordinator after this season, the defense has kept opponents to 20 points or less in four of the previous five games. Not everything on that side of the ball is as bad as it seemed early in the season.
