NFL network confirms

Ian Rapaport confirms

To echo what @TomPelissero reported, #Bengals coach Marvin Lewis tells his staff he’s out. A new direction for owner Mike Brown. Keep an eye on Vance Joseph there.

Won't believe it until I see it on the home page.

Who is next is the question

As long as this isn't followed with "NFL Network confirms Hue Jackson will transition to HC" I am a happy man.

It was time a long ago, but I wish he would stay and be our DC. He showed he can still coach defenses. 

The new HC needs to find a great DC. The question becomes is if the new HC will have the autonomy to fire all coaches and start over or if he is stuck with those on staff now.

The weirdest part to me was "Mike Brown's decision"

[RunKijanaRun]

Vance Joseph qualifies as "Not Hue Jackson" but it's not tremendously more inspiring.

Still, this is fine.

I just heard it on the Pittsburgh station I have on now. My heart dropped...I can't believe it. What has been my reality since I was 20 years of age is no longer....this is odd.

And now I'm worried Hue is taking over.


NOW we need Zimmer to be fired?

[Bengalholic]

Sounds like it's Mike who made the call?

Marvin Lewis has informed his #Bengals staff he's out as coach, source said. Owner Mike Brown made the decision.

Yes!!!!

And now the exhaustive, leave no stone untirned search for the next HC begins--Send in Hue.

Honestly, had Marvin retired I'd feel like it was more likely that Hue was the plan. The fact they are saying he was fired gives me more hope it really isn't Hue.

[Brownsgal19]

Congrats on firing Marvin.

I should hope that Hue is hired, but I wouldn't wish that on anybody.

What is Bruce Coslet up to?

[2MinutesHate]

As much as I can't stand Marvin, I hope this isn't Mike Brown's way of returning to the Dark Ages. He could be actually gaining more power with Lewis out of the way.
I know.
I'm paranoid.

But I think it's justified.
