I predict Jay Gruden is our HC next year if it's not Marvin

To be honest though, if Marvin does quit or get canned (both very unlikely IMO) I would love to see them avoid Marvin-era coaches altogether and hire someone that would bring in a level of excitement and a reason for renewed optimism. My list would be:

   Matt Campbell
   Dave Toub
   Eric Bieniemy
   Pete Carmichael 
   Matt LaFleur
   Vic Fangio
   Dan Campbell
   James Bettcher

If I were the owner, I would be interested in all of these guys for different reasons. They all bring different experiences, skills, styles, approaches and levels of success. Most importantly, none of them are Marvin Lewis or Hue Jackson. 

It's pretty sad, that as fans, our hopes and expectations have been reduced to "please don't let it be the same guy, or his buddy".  I think that you have put together a realistic looking list of potential candidates, I wonder how it compares to the front office's wish list?
