I believe all of us fans are going to be very surprised by his pick as remember the whole family will be in on the pick,not just him and the last time I wrote the Bengals,I suggested some people all of us would welcome here,like some of the old school guys that have kept up with the technology of sports and having a young mind to make it work and they are former players out there waiting in the wings for the family to give them a call.I know this for a fact,like Mr. Dave Lapham,who would make a great assistant coach for offense.Ken Riley would be a great coach for the D secondary,How about Chad Johnson with the receivers.HE would be a great addition in the right group of coaches to keep him focused and T.J. Housh would be a great coach for receivers and tight ends. Just sayin.How about big Anthony Munoz for HC. Talk about filling the stadium opening day.Who-Dey !!!!

Good God, man. Would it kill you to use paragraphs? They're free.

I think Dave Lapham would kick butt as a General Manager. Oh, and what McC said about paragraphs....

I’m not worried about that happening at all. Mike Brown won’t replace mediocre with abysmal.

I don't think we need to hurry this hire either as a few of the Head Coaching candidates will be in the playoffs
in Beinemy, Fangio, Campbell etc. It might be better to wait it out and see who the best one is IMO.
Maybe — but there are guys like Mike McCarthy who might be interesting to interview now. I want someone who has won a Super Bowl before to coach Cincinnati.

Well just read, 2 in house coaches will be interviewed.

Simmons - They said he has a great shot!
My guess heads will explode with the fan base if Bengals stay in house
Be careful what you wish for. Full disclosure: Pre 1968 I was a Browns backer. It took me a few years to wean myself from the likes of Jim Brown, Leroy Kelly, Dr Frank Ryan, Paul Warfield and that lovable kicker, Lou Groza. During the 1980s, I cheered my Bengals to two Superbowls, only to be defeated by our archenemies the 49ers. Then came the Dark Ages of the 90s and early aughts. From 2003 through 2018, Marvin Lewis brought the Bengals organization back to respectability. Now it's anyone's guess - will it be feast or famine? Only the Brown family knows for sure...

Yeah, getting rid of Marvin is a much needed and overdue move, and hiring a new HC from outside the organization would be another solid step in the right direction...but, there's still the glaring problem named Mike Brown.
If it wasn't raining so hard, fans would be dancing in the streets. And who knows, maybe some are anyway.
Now fire the rest of the staff, trade Dalton, and cut Burfict.

None of the guys who have been wearing out the keyboards guaranteeing over and over again the "Marvin is going nowhere" will eat any crow.
I didn't think he was going anywhere, but I was wrong so I'll take a helping.
On the other hand, I wasn't wearing out my keyboard, so I'll just throw the crow in the garbage.

Shouldn't be necessary. He has to retire. Seven concussions, two this year?

Wait, what? Then why do I keep getting invoices from 'Holic for paragraph overages?

I like the idea of somebody who has won a ring before as a head coach.
