For the Shula Haters

The Bengals have fired Ken Zampese.

He's a guy who interviewed here previously, and comes from a solid background (his dad is Norv Turner's mentor).

At the very least, I'd love to see him brought aboard in a consultant role. He's had plenty of success as a QB coach.

Mind you, nothing's gonna happen, but if you want something to pin false hopes on, here ya go :(

In the pros, Marc Bulger, Carson Palmer and Andy Dalton.

The Bengals offense has had a ton of talent, and a good OL before this year and they've never been much to write home about. Do you like this guy as an OC or just connecting dots?

I am hoping that the reason our plays were so vanila bc we did not have the right personel to run his offense....hopefully that has changed with the new pieces we have added...Don't know who decides who should be in on the plays but im glad we dont have to see the bersin bubble screen anymore

Our plays are not vanilla in the first place. We use all kinds of different formations and different blocking schemes.

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
