AFP, WASHINGTONThe Cincinnati Bengals, who failed to score a touchdown in losing their first two games of the NFL season, sacked offensive coordinator Ken Zampese on Friday. The team confirmed the move the day after a lackluster 13-9 loss to the Houston Texans. Bengals quarterbacks coach Bill Lazor, a former NFL offensive coordinator for three teams, was named as Zampese’s replacement. Zampese served as Bengals quarterbacks coach for 13 seasons before being named offensive coordinator last year when Hue Jackson left to coach the Cleveland Browns. “It’s difficult to win many games when we don’t score touchdowns,” Lewis said on Friday, before the team announced Zampese had been fired.
