Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor took a lot of heat during the team's four-game losing streak. Funny how things often change in the NFL with just one massive win.
Well, it's more than that, isn't it? Credit the front office for swinging a trade for Joe Flacco, and to Taylor for adapting the offense to fit Flacco's skill set and Cincinnati's personnel. It's translated to renewed hope for the 2025 season.
All that said, Week 8's showdown with the New York Jets marks a pivotal point where the Bengals can't afford a letdown. One of their most maligned units that fared well in the big win over the Steelers might be getting an unwelcome shakeup if Taylor isn't careful.
