And if so, how soon after the Ravens game do we start a new head coaching search in earnest?I'm going to say by January 5th, it will be announced that Lewis has decided to go chase his other passions in life. Now as for a new HC, it might be a couple of weeks because hopefully that young offensive mind we want is coaching in the playoffs somewhere.
I have a feeling that we'll know the former pretty quickly (within the week I'm guessing), so I'm more interested in how long Brown waits before starting his search, assuming Merv is officially not coming back. And I mean, REALLY searching. Like talking to guys, interviewing candidates, etc. None of this, "Oh, we're putting a list together" crap.
Of course. I'm still holding out hope that Brown makes an announcement that Merv is not coming back AND that he's officially turning over the team to Katie who in turn announces she's starting the head coaching search by searching for a GM. Just goes to show, the Bengals haven't killed ALL my dreams, yet.
