The Cincinnati Bengals have fired offensive coordinator Ken Zampese following the team's lackluster 0-2 start, the team announced Friday.

The Bengals said quarterbacks coach Bill Lazor will immediately assume coordinator duties.

Cincinnati has gotten off to one of the worst offensive starts in team history, falling to 0-2 and failing to score an offensive touchdown at home through two games for the first time since 1939.

The Bengals opened the season with a 20-0 loss to Baltimore followed by Thursday night's 13-9 loss to the Houston Texans.

Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said earlier Friday that he would keep any personnel changes private.
