perhaps we'll hear soon ?

Dehner says the Bengals are not interviewing any more candidates -> https://www.cincinnati.com/story/sports/nfl/bengals/2019/01/09/cincinnati-bengals-coach-search-nearing-conclusion/2517338002/ .

So this is what were looking at:

INTERNAL
Hue Jackson
Vance Joseph
Darrin Simmons
Bill Lazor

EXTERNAL
Eric Bieniemy
Todd Monken
Zac Taylor
Shane Waldron

Eh... would’ve liked the Colts DC to get an interview. And Kris Richard.

Honestly, this just worries me a bit more. I’d like Bieniemy at HC and Taylor at OC though.

Crossing fingers and toes for an external hire.

Gotta make a call soon or lose out on potential coordinators as the new HCs build their staffs

Well, if they're not waiting to interview anyone else for HC, that are coaching in playoff games this weekend, they might as well get on with it. With the rate that teams have been naming HCs in the past few days, the scramble for coordinators and position coaches should be pretty intense.

Who they choose will tell us everything we need to know about this team. In house is just a continuation of status quo without Marvin Lewis and External is a change in culture.

If Dehner is right that the interview process is over, then if they're wanting Taylor or Bieniemy they would still have to wait to hire them. Maybe they go Monken, who they could announce at any time.

External will be a POSSIBLE change in culture; they could also hire externally and run things the same way. Hiring internal will mean zero chance of any change.

If I recall, they can offer the position to a coach in the playoffs but they cannot announce it until after that coach's team is done.  Am I remembering that correctly?

I would think if it’s monken there is no real reason to delay the announcement. If it’s one of others they’re probably waiting until that team is eliminated before it’s made public

Bieniemy HC, Hue OC, Vance DC.

Recipe for utter disaster. Does anyone think Hue's ego would allow him to fall in line under a first time HC who got the job he wanted? One word comes to minf--undermine.

I personally feel that the decision has been made.....and we're waiting on a team to fall out of the playoffs.


Some of these other interviews, may be coordinator positions that have already been discussed with the soon to be HC.  A guy can hope anyway.....

Todd Monken is in Jacksonville interviewing for the OC position today.

[ZWP]

Browns let Greg Williams go, I'd go get him for DC.

That's my hope as well brother.  :andy:

[J24]

It's going to be either Vance or Hue isn't it?

[CJD]

My hope is that it will be Eric Bieniemy.

My fear is that it will be Hue Jackson, Bill Lazor or Darrin Simmons.

My expectation is it will be Vance Joseph.

Wanting to interview Gary Kubiak for OC tells me the front office is willing to move on from Bill Lazor.
