‘The Cincinnati Bengals are playing for their playoff lives this weekend. They need to defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers and need some help from the Kansas City Chiefs and Jets to defeat the Denver Broncos and Miami Dolphins, respectively, for the Bengals to get into the postseason.

He’s not highly-regarded as one of the league’s top coaches nor does he do anything revolutionary to make him stand out. Should they move on from Taylor, reuniting Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase with their former pass game coordinator from LSU would make a load of sense.’
