Cincinnati’s rookie head coach is certainly not shy. Zac Taylor’s decision making has left Bengals fans interested, excited, and maybe a little confused. But that is the nature of a fanbase that endured 16 years of the conservative and predictable Marvin Lewis.

And the two guys they have backing him up are no hot shot up-and-comers or grizzled veterans there to improve the culture.
