A. Mike Brown puts the people there who help him decide.
B. He's the tie breaker.
C. His views on the draft and what's important infect the entire team.
No team keeps a 1 win coach, but Mike Brown probably will. I'm pretty much expecting the team to tank again in the upcoming draft. Sure they have the top pick, but when you pick first in every round and you have as many holes as the Bengals, anything less than an amazing draft is fail because this team now needs an amazing draft just to get back to the 6 wins of only a season ago.
1 win teams...
1980 Saints....Dick Nolan fired after game 12 but was there 3 years previous
1989 Cowboys...Jimmy Johnson...1st NFL gig...not gonna day anymore...we all know what he did
1990 Pats....Rod Rust..fired after season 1
1991 Colts...Ron Meyer fired after game 5 but was there 4 years previous
1996 Jets...Rich Kotite fired after the season and 2nd year
2000 Chargers...Mike Reilly...Same as Kotite
2001 Panthers...George Seifert after season and 2nd year
2007 Miami Dolphins...Cam Cameron...1st NFL gig and fired after the season
2009 Rams...Steve Spagnuolo....1st NFL HC gig...stayed for 2 more seasons
2016 Browns...Hue....was 0-16 the next year
Of 10 times happening only Cam Cameron and Rod Rust were rookie NFL head coaches that went 1-15 and fired after 1 season
3 times the coach was retained for at least 1 more year
5 were fired after the season or mid season after being there multiple years
Odds are that there will be no firing of the HC.
