Went on Bengals.com and it showed the live feed to ML presser, clicked on it and said not available....And then, poof, it was gone....

The media is still waiting for them to come out and address everything, going on 40 minutes now

Maybe Marv quit and left the premises

It was supposed to start at 12, but apparently no one has come in yet. We're all waiting at this point.

Sick feeling they are working out the final details for his return....

Oh god he’s back.

I have a bad feeling.

Marvin says he and Mike will continue to talk about a resolution.

...

The fact it's Marvins decision says all you need to know about Mike Brown.

Shit, this franchise can't even get rid of a coach properly.

On the other hand, he can probably get Mike to make concessions no other coach could. Maybe this time Marvin has more leverage. A practice facility? Scouting? Maybe he can pry something tangible from the old man.

I have a feeling Marv is gonna be the GM which would be awesome he would be a great GM

A practice facility is the least of our worries.... a short bus ride to Clifton is not a hardship. I wish they would build one just so people would stop complaining about it.

Would be fine with this,

but not him returning as HC.

Wasn't complaining.  Just citing an example of something concrete that might come out of their discussion.  

Marv says there is mutual interest in keeping relationship going

Weird is bringing back a coach whose best days are behind him. Weird is retaining a coach that is 0-7 in the playoffs and an abysmal record in prime time games and against the steelers.

Thats what is weird

Yeah, IU wasn't directing that specifically at you.... some on here seem to think that is THE reason we do not win.... it's really meaningless as long as we have one to use when we need it..... which we do....

Why would he be a great gm? Because he’s a shit coach?

Nope. He shot that down in the press conference. Pretty much said he has no idea where that came from and that it was "made up".

So very sorry to say that it's merely a formality now. Marvin Lewis will be coaching the bengals in 2018 (and likely beyond as it sounds like it may be a multi-year deal). 


I'm going to miss you guys
