About this episode
Zac Taylor, in his eighth year as Cincinnati Bengals head coach, continues to call offensive plays, despite criticism for some questionable calls. However, when star quarterback Joe Burrow is healthy, the Bengals offense ranks among the best. The team recently signed Joe Flacco, a forty-one-year-old quarterback, as Burrows backup, making him one of the highest-paid reserves in the league. Flacco, who played under Taylor last season, praises Taylors play-calling abilities. Taylors system proved effective for veteran quarterbacks like Flacco, who threw for 1,636 yards and 13 touchdowns in just six games. Players appreciate Taylors coaching style and his ability to adjust on the fly. Despite fan calls for an outside play-caller, Taylor remains in place, as the Bengals prepare for a crucial 2026 season. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
