Bengals Coach Zac Taylor Called Out Rams' Sean McVay and We Can't Stop Laughing
There are only a handful of NFL coaches that should not find it challenging to go against the Rams' Sean McVay. Those would be guys Bill Belichick, Andy Reid, Sean Payton, and a couple others.
One name that we'd never think of is Zac Taylor, the current Bengals coach and former assistant under McVay. But according to Taylor, the matchup this Sunday against his mentor will be "not hard."
Taylor gives a further explanation for this statement, saying that he has a relationship to every other coach in some way, so this game won't be unique.
Eh, that kind of makes sense, in a way. But considering Cincinnati is 0-7 in Taylor's first season as head coach and the success McVay has had in his young head coaching career, Taylor's comments come off as a bit absurd and over the top.
Does he realize his offense produced a total of 33 rushing yards last week, and his running backs combined for ZERO yards on 16 carries?
It would have probably been best for Taylor to phrase what he said differently, or to just keep his mouth shut completely.
But hey, if the Bengals somehow upset the Rams across the pond in London, they'd finally be in the win column and Taylor would have the upper hand over his former mentor in their head-to-head matchup.
