I think it’s clear we’re not going to get a Tier 1 HC candidate, or even a Tier 2 for that matter. That doesn’t man a guy like Simmons couldn’t turn out to be a success, but just don’t expect a well known name hire.
“As for potential coaching candidates for the Bengals in 2018, special teams coach Darrin Simmons could be on the short list of names the franchise considers for the vacancy, Rapoport reported.”
Of course, this is all from the report, that Marvin is now denying.

Yeah, a lot of speculation going around. John Breech (CBS) had an article earlier where he listed Guenther, Simmons, Todd Haley, Josh McDaniels and Frank Reich as the most likely to replace Marvin, along with Hue and Jay if they're fired.
