However I do know that Bienemy will NOT be a change. 

Others might think he is, but he isn't and I am calling it now. 

Taylor would be a change.  Someone that has actually helped build a struggling franchise and turn it around.

Bienemy has NOT done that.

No.

I will ask you this... posters on this board have called Hue Marvin 2.0 and NOTHING about being racist.

I say the losing will continue with Eric and the time we will keep him as HC will be about the same and all of a sudden I am a racist and the ONLY similarity that YOU and others can see is that they are both black men.

Yet I am the racist?  Stop it.

No I am a Bengals fan...  been so for a LONG time.

No I don't like Mixon.  Want him gone.  However he is on the team.  I think he is overrated and we could do the same without him. 

I get that I am a minority in that belief, especially on this board.  However I should be allowed to express that belief without being called fake or a racist.

Honestly, most players and coaches these days do great things in the community. What does Mikey do for the community?

Nice guys finish last in pro sports. From all his press conferences, Merv seems like an arrogant a-hole to me, but unlike Belichick, he can't back it up with winning.

Now to actually answer your question.

Lewis had all of the excitement thrown at him for his stint in Baltimore.... Bienemy does too.

Many pointed out the talent that Lewis had in Baltimore.... Bienemy has talent around him too.

I see us losing many games with Bienemy and not going to the postseason... if we DID make the postseason we lose 1 and done.... Just like Lewis

I see Bienemy getting many years and extensions and staying the HC for a long time past when we should have fired him.... Just like Lewis.

Being the minority on a topic doesn't make a person right OR wrong.  I just have a different perspective of what I am looking for out of RBs.

Look at Bennard.  He runs hard and isn't afraid to get hit.  It is a shame he isn't bigger.

Mixon is bigger, but he doesn't run hard and looks timid and scared to take a hit.  Of course many on here HATE when someone says something negative about their "fav" player, so I get my credibility attacked.
