Expect to see extensions coming for some Bengals assistant coaches, plus an extension for Zac Taylor after the Super Bowl.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.

They've earned it and when they win the Super Bowl, they've really earned it.

I'll admit that after Joe went down last year, I was ready to see the entire regime kicked to the curb. Now, I have to say that I'm glad that they stayed the course and trusted the process. Extensions merited by all, in my opinion.

Taylor had one more year on his deal, I think he was always going to get the extension to avoid being a lame duck coach if they hit .500 or better but trying to keep the whole group with no changes is a direct reflection of the SB run.

I wanted him drawn and quartered.
But I'm so very happy that he's proved me wrong. Extensions to all I say.

If they keep extending Zac we'll never be able to fire him...

A lot of us are ecstatic to have been wrong at this point. I hope we can keep Lou and Callahan around for a few more years before they get HC gigs, but probably won't happen.

Yes I'm hoping OL is the major focus. Two quality free agents and at least 1 upper round draft pick.

I dunno why, but I get the sense it will be Spain getting re-signed, one outside FA, and one draft pick.
Maybe another draft pick on top of that as added depth.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins

That would be very depressing. We definitely need at least 2 quality FA’s foe the 3 sports that need upgraded.

Well deserved too

I think they'll move on from Waynes and Reiff, resign Spain, and pick up a couple solid but not great onlinemen.

That is my expectation. Hope it is better though. We will see, I was surprised by our FA the last few years with Zac here.
