Gruden also would very likely keep Paul Guenther as DC, which might not be what people want to see.
This all would fit the familiarity narrative that we know Mike Brown prefers.
And IMO this organization is not going to be a powerhouse with a familiar face at HC unless maybe that HC was Mike Zimmer.
I agree, although I think Jay is more creative and less conservative than Merv, so that's a plus.
That being said, we're Bengals fans. We're beat down, and realize that we likely won't get the HC that many of us are clamoring for. I will have to stand pat on my opinion that, of the candidates mentioned thus far, Gruden may be our best option. I mean, Simmons, Guenther, Hue......or Gruden. Who would you pick out of that lot?
