Zac Taylor has one win to show for his first season as coach of the Cincinnati Bengals. As much as people complained about Marvin Lewis, he never won less than four games in his 16 seasons with the Bengals. Taylor will get a second year and a first overall pick to use in the 2020 NFL Draft. Remember, Jonah Williams, Cincy’s first pick in 2019, has missed the entire season with a torn labrum.
