We have a problem though- Browning can't make the throws needed 

Yup.

Dodged a bullet there. 

INT, they need to bench Browning, he is not a pro QB, not with this lack of talent around him.

Paging Jameis Winston.

ABSOLUTELY! And NOW! Get Browning off the field.

For sure, just like @TheDeuce said, that should have been our first move, but we have wasted three games and at some point we cut our losses and play for the future.

Nah. We already have a guy who is good at throwing interceptions. 

We’re getting a local geography lesson here. 

Looking rough!

As bad as we have played our defense has played pretty good so far they have been put in bad positions with the made FG we are just down 11 at 14-3 and we get the ball to begin the 2nd half.

A tiny spark of life. Kinda like Bruce Willis’ match at the end of The Fifth Element. 

It’s time to make the call.

let's hope so. The frustrating part, is other offensive coaches who coached under Sean McVay have gone on to become known as great creative offensive minds like McVay. Yet Taylor really hasn't not shown that as much, as his offense has always seemed to stem from guys having to win routes, more so than schemes helping out. I do think he has gotten better, but still not great. 

 

Matt Lafleur, Kevin O'Connell, Liam Coen, all guys who previously coached under McVay have been very successful and known for their good offensive minds. Here is a chance for Taylor to show he can be like that too. 

Didn't the Bengals go to the Superbowl and another AFC Championship game under Taylor? Do you think not having Burrow due to his 53rd injury since being drafted changes what they do? I always thought that Taylor was respected around the league for his offensive approach.

We are seeing how much of their success is because of Burrow and how much is because of Taylor.
