Zac Taylor’s wife has fans raging online after revealing what she and her children have to go through when things don’t go Cincinnati’s way.
The Bengals fell to 4-6 after a loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night after Taylor opted to go for a two-point conversion that would have given them a one-point lead in the game’s dying embers.
While the decision was probably the correct one given the circumstances, it did not work out, with Cincy losing 35-34.
His wife, Sarah Sherman Taylor, has since taken to Instagram to share her fears over looming harassment from fans.
“I am in rage mode right now and should delete Instagram. I just want people to know how hard this is to watch,” she wrote.

“My kids haven’t seen him since Sunday. He had the perfect game plan. Brooks was mad at me for watching the last play with my head under the covers and I said I’m sorry people will say stuff to me every where I go for the next week and he said “me too mom get over it.” I don’t know how these coaches and players do it but the best thing I can do is move on like them.
Fans Are Feeling it For Zac Taylor’s Wife
Social media condemned the actions of sour Bengals fans as they pointed out that coaches’ families should be off limits.
“Why are people approaching family members of players or coaches? So messed up,” a user commented.
“Super unnecessary… fans need to do better,” someone else declared.
“Fans forget that these are real people too,” said a third.
“This is truly unacceptable,” a fourth added. “Family should always be off-limits, no matter what happens on the field. Passionate support is one thing, but targeting a coach’s family, especially young kids, crosses every line. We need to remember the human side of sports.“
Zac and Sarah met while attending the University of Nebraska, where he was pursuing a career as a quarterbac while she was an assistant in the sports information department.
They tied the knot in 2008 and have four children – Brooks, Luke, Emma Claire, and Milly – together.
