Lou Anarumo is the best defensive coordinator the Bengals have had since Di... — I mean Richard — LeBeau.  Lou is better than Mike Zimmer and I never thought I could admit this but it’s true.  He is.  Remember when the Bengals couldn’t cover a tight end?  Those days are over.  

We all know Lou is considered head coach material by a growing number of teams.  I’m still hurt over Mike Zimmer’s exit from the Queen City because the Bengals fell apart over the next few years.  Letting Lou Anarumo go would be an even bigger mistake.  His defenses have risen to the occasion in the playoffs with key interceptions, forced fumbles, and critical stops.  The Bengals would not be AFC champions without Lou’s defense.

Mikey Boy, Katie, and Duke need to pay the man.  I mean PAY.  I would offer Lou everything including the kitchen sink.  The worst nightmare I can imagine is coaching AGAINST him.

he is better than Zimmer for sure when it counted, playoffs.. Zimmer never performed well in the playoffs, Lou has but in the end you can;t stop assistants from moving on, it is the nature of how things go.  Also the Bengals did not fall apart they felt apart really when we had a few bad drafts together especially when the Oline picks did not work out and we would not invest much in free agency
