I've read through many of the recent threads and conversations as to whether Lewis will be back, whether Hue Jackson might take over or whether a new head coach may be a possibility.
In my humble opinion, I think Coach Lewis will undoubtedly return for his 17th season as head coach of the Bengals. Given what has transpired this season with the amount of injuries and the unbridled failure of his defensive coordinator, I think Coach Lewis will feel obliged to return -- whether for reasons of pure ego or the simply the notion of unfinished business.
I don't think he wants this season to be the punctuation on his career in Cincinnati, much the same as last year. I think it more the case that he'll want one more attempt at riding off with that elusive playoff victory, or at the very minimum, a winning season.
I also think he will bring in yet another defensive coordinator to assume the duties that he now handles. What then to do with Hue Jackson? I think there is a very real possibility that he is named the Assistant HC and supplants Bill Lazor as offensive coordinator.
Of course, this is all purely conjecture on my part, but it is also what I find to be most logical as it pertains to what we know about how these situations tend to play out in the Bengals organization. I would be rather ecstatic to be proven wrong by ownership, as I feel the need for change has never been more pressing and the overall situation lends itself perfectly to making said change.
