I wouldn't have any problem with that.

Just like Marv, he’s best as a coordinator. How crazy good could the Vikings be if they had Hue at OC and Marv at DC with Zim as HC.

They can hear what they have to say and see if it is compatible with the next HC and if it's not they can move on rather than them faking it when the new guy gets here and is the boss.

I think the in house guys are the fall backs.  Kinda like when you were applying to colleges and you had those 1-2 community colleges that you knew for a fact you could get accepted to in case the unthinkable happened and you got turned down everywhere else.

This team badly needs a fresh start ! If they want to put butts in seats and sell hot dogs they better realize it's time.

When they finally had the gumption to move on from Marvin, it changed my perspective a bit.  I don't see how they could part ways with Marvin, and then turn around and hire Marvin 2.0 (Hue), or Marvin 2.5 (V. Joseph).  I think they're courtesies extended to the current staffers (Hue and Simmons), and I'm not sure what in the hell they're bringing Joseph in for.  As others said, maybe for coordinator positions or fall backs.

I think the empty seats played a part in this, and surely Mikey has enough sense to realize that they'll be even emptier if he hires Hue Jackson.

Interesting enough our attendance was only down 5% this year, only third highest decline in attendance in the league surprisingly.

The trade for Glenn, firing of Alexander, and signing of  Preston Brown really stoked up the Bengal fan base last off season.

That is shocking.  With all of the hubub over season tickets not being renewed, and the optics on TV, I would have certainly pegged them at least middle of the pack to bottom third.

There should have been a list of assistant coaches that were let go on the day that Marvin was, Hue being number one. Halfazz isn’t a fresh start or a new direction.

Yeah but is that going on ticket sales or actual butts in seats ? I'd venture to say there's a significant difference.

Mostly haters grasping for straws.

Hell, I'm not even sure Marvin doesn't come back for 2019 at this point.

Yeah when you watched games on TV, you could have taken everyone that was there and moved them into the lower section.  Then you hear what the attendance was and wonder where those other 15k-20k people were....

My understanding is that Hue Jackson’s interview with the #Bengals for their head coach vacancy is happening in about an hour.

Hopefully Mr. Brown is just buying Hue his last supper with the team, as a courtesy on his way out the door.

Probably spring for a Happy Meal !

Not sure how in touch Cowherd is, but apparently he said on his radio show today that a source whose in the know told him that Mike Brown badly wants to hire Hue as the head coach but is afraid of the blowback he would receive.

 It wasn't the typical Bengals off season & this one isn't either. Hope this hire turns out better than those moves.

And he should be afraid!

And Cowherd would love nothing more than for Mike Brown to hire Hue Jackson.  As then he would have plenty of new material to rag the Bengals about.  Cowherd has made it very clear that he roots for the favorite, the big market team, the bully.  He's made it abundantly clear that he feels that star players and coaches committing to "lesser teams" is a waste of their time and talents.  Basically, just as super douchey and a jerk wad as he sounds on his rants, is who he really is.  I take nothing he says with any sincerity, or his so-called "sources".
