After Coslet resigns guess what Mike does? Yup hires LeBeau as HC. Then after two lazy moves he puts some effort in and hires Marvin who took so much wind out of him he waits 16 years to fire him.
Is it so far fetched he would be lazy with replacing Lewis? Im just reading what the news is saying and not thinking its so ridiculous of a theory.
That being said Im elated Lewis is gone, Im just hoping Brown makes the most of this and puts the best person in a position for our team to succeed, not make another comfortable move.
In fairness to Coslet, he went 7-2 after replacing Shula as the interim HC. Really hard to not give the guy the job after they started 1-6.
LeBeau was the Bengals' DC for their second SB and was big name coordinator, so it wasn't like he was a relative no name like Lazor. That hire would have been about equivalent to promoting Zimmer to HC.
Both hires didn't work out and were arguably lazy, but both guys were qualified on paper.
