Bengals fans want Zac Taylor fired as franchise gets humiliated in 34-11 loss to Steelers: "He is a Joe Burrow merchant"

The 34-11 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday was disappointing, especially as it hurt their chances of making the playoffs.The Cincinnati Bengals are now 8-7, which is admirable if you consider how long Burrow has been absent from the team - and also how slow he was at the start of the season. But the cold truth is that even though Jake Browning is doing a great job, the team isn't going to be a true contender; Saturday's loss, though, made fans unhappy.Bengals fans were calling for Zac Taylor's firing after the coach was unable to make a good game plan to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers, who were heavily struggling, saying that he couldn't do anything without relying on Joe Burrow.

The calf injury has sidelined him for several weeks, but it was the best Cincinnati could've asked for after early reports of a non-contact injury created panic among the fanbase.What happened to Joe Burrow during the 2023 season?After a slow start to the year due to the calf injury, he recovered in time to help the Bengals make a run to the playoffs. But he suffered an injury on his throwing hand, which was later deemed a torn ligament, and he was out for the remainder of the season due to surgery.Jake Browning took over, and he has done a decent job filling in for the remainder of the season. Of course, he's nowhere near Burrow's level but is doing a great job, improving his chances of a starter job in 2024.
