Out of everyone we have interviewed Todd Monken should get the job. He has turned around one program thus far (although college) and excelled in Tampa Bay with a dysfunctional team, owner and QB.
Check out this article which says the same thing. For the pundits tell me why we shouldn't,

Definately one of the top candidates in my eyes as well.
All for it, he has been successful as you note. One of Monken, Bienemy, Taylor, Richard would be great.

Can't wait to see what all these exciting candidates do for their new teams while one of the in house turds gives us twenty more years of Marvball.

Maybe Lazor will bring Monken on as OC...
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

I know it feels like we're crapping on our own dreams but I really get this gut feeling it's gonna be Lazor as HC.

Nah. He'll insist on doing the job himself.

If Lap was saying lazor and Simmons are basically at the top of their list, I believe it. And I won’t lie, I’m going to be pissed.

He's my #2 favorite.
My only concern with him is that he was always around the middle of the pack when it came to red zone offense.
BUT! Lazor actually excels in that department, so they could balance each other out assuming that Lazor remains at OC.

I was gonna make a post about this so I'm glad you did! I completely agree. After reviewing all the candidates, I believe he's the best fit for what the Bengals need right now. Just as long as he brings in a proven DC kinda like McVay did. And as luck would have it, he actually coached under Jack Del Rio in Jacksonville. If Del Rio still has the itch to coach then a Monken/Del Rio combo would be ideal IMO.

It's a GD joke.
About as amusing as someone telling cancer jokes in a pediatric hospice ward.

He is my #1 choice but at same time so hope we offer the job but also hope he takes the job too.

Well I'm sold. Has he actually been linked at all to getting an interview?

Count me in for Monken as well. Taylor and Monken and Bieniemy are my top three offense coaches, Kris Richard if they go defense.

If it was one of these guys wouldn't they have announced it already? why would they interview all these other guys and even travel around the country doing interview when they have already interview Lazor & Simmons.
