Next Bengals HC?

I still strongly feel that they go outside of the team for the next one.

Honestly, even if they hire Guenther, what is just as important is cleaning house. It's of utmost importance to hire a new HC and make him have to hire a whole new coaching staff. Don't even hint that he can interview those that were here under Lewis. In fact, make it seem like he can't (don't say that he can't, but strongly imply that he needs to bring in all new guys). Give the new coach FULL control over who to hire with ZERO influence.

If they did this, it would make hiring Guenther a little bit more palatable (though I still would rather it be someone from outside the organization).
