I'm told Teryl Austin is going to accept the #Bengals offer to become their defensive coordinator, per source.
Is "as told per source", really confirmed?
Has the team or Austin put anything out?
I'll wait for the official announcement, but I like the hiring if true. I know a lot of people were dead set on Del Rio, so I imagine this will spawn a lot of disappointment, but it sounds like he's a good coach with a lot of love from players and fans alike.

Seems official and not sure it is the right move. Time will tell though.
Austin is a 4-3 guy, right?
I like the move, seems to bring something we need turnovers by defense
Decent move i suppose but won't move the needle one way or another in the overall scheme of things.
I like we got a guy who has been getting a lot of head coaching job interviews in recent years. Shows he has a lot of respect around the league.
Well, he's coached on 3 different Super Bowl teams, so there's that.....

Or that he’ll be gone to one of those jobs in a few short years & we’ll be back in the same position as we have been.

When you lost coaches to other teams, it's because you are winning.
I can see Atkins really benefiting a one gap style. I know Austin has been a one gap guy in the past, not sure what the plan is for here.

Must be why PG is gone

He's gone because Gruden wanted him. I didn't hear of a bunch of other teams beating down his door.....

I want to believe we told his a** to beat it.
I know it's not a popular way of thinking these days but I'm willing to see what happens before I condemn the man.

That sums up about where I am with this team in general
