"CINCINNATI -- Bengals coach Zac Taylor isn't relinquishing one of the team's most important duties. Taylor confirmed Monday that he will retain his role as the team's offensive playcaller after the Bengals suffered their third straight loss, a 37-24 home defeat to the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Cincinnati mustered just 3 points through the first three quarters for the third consecutive week. That prompted Taylor to take responsibility for his share of the team's struggles."
"Cincinnati has been without starting quarterback Joe Burrow since he suffered a turf toe injury in Week 2 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jake Browning has started the last three games that have coincided with the team's worst offensive rut in Taylor's seven-year tenure. At one point in Sunday's loss to Detroit, the team trailed 28-3 before eventually scoring three fourth-quarter touchdowns to make the game a bit more competitive."
