Lou Interviewing for NYG HC Position

It might work eventually, but I'd much rather have someone on the staff from Lou's school of thought.  I dislike the idea of switching horses in the middle of a race when one is running pretty well.  

If Zimmer came on board, I'd rather see it as a front office guy in waiting so he could at least have a feel for things before taking the reigns.  

It will be a moot argument anyway, as I don't see Lou going anywhere.

Not this season, but since Lou has been here the Bengals have been a heavier blitz team than Minnesota. Those Bengals you mentioned also played a lot of zone. It is a rare occurrence to find a team that plays more man than zone. They aren't as different as you'd think. Zimmer would be able to step in and pick things right back up. 

I do agree, though. I don't think Lou is going anywhere and we will have some continuity on that side of the ball next season.
