Why Zac Taylor hot seat buzz is most likely a Bengals false alarm

The Cincinnati Bengals aren't hurting on offense even with Joe Burrow injured for much of the season, and that's a big credit to head coach Zac Taylor.

For all the criticism he fields, some of it deserved, Taylor knows how to adjust on the fly when adversity strikes. Unfortunately, Joe Flacco playing at an elite level in Burrow's stead hasn't been enough for Taylor to produce the desired results on game days of late.

Thanks to 86 points allowed by the defense against the Jets and Bears, Cincinnati slid into its Week 10 bye at 3-6, on a two-game losing streak.
