Some good news for Bengals fans.
The Cincinnati Bengals have already had an eventful offseason after landing Al Golden as their new defensive coordinator.
After helping lead the Notre Dame Fighting Irish to the College Football Championship game, Golden is now excited to get to work with a team as talented as the Bengals. It also sounds like some of the players are excited to get to work with their new coach on defense.
Logan Wilson, a linebacker who played for Golden when he was the linebackers coach in the Queen City, spoke with Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com and is excited to get to work with a familiar face. Wilson is also excited about the style of play he allowed during his time with the Bengals previously.
“Golden] allowed things to be simpler when he was with us,” Wilson said. “And so I feel like that’s why we were able to play fast and I’m sure he’ll be doing some similar stuff that we used to run. He will have his little nuances in the system. He obviously had that Notre Dame defense cooking.”
That will be music to Bengals fans’ ears.
With such a potent offense this season, it was the defense that continued to trend downwards ultimately throughout the season. Now, with the majority of key players back on offense and plenty of key players back on defense, Zac Taylor is hoping to look like a genius with this move.
If Wilson’s comments indicate anything, it seems like the system should be a good fit.
