The only coaches that I've seen any reports stating that they're being retained are:

Darrin Simmons - Special Teams
Frank Pollack     - Offensive Line

No word yet on:

QB Coach
WR Coach
Secondary Coach
Strength and Conditioning Coach
Any of the position coaching assistants

Edit: Just heard that DL assistant Matt Raich was fired.

I would really like to see strength and conditioning coaches replaced.

I think he will be. We shall see.

Our strength and conditioning coach has got to go. It feels like we are consistently one of the most injured teams in the league.

49ers just did the same thing.

The new brain trust appears to "actually football".

Same way i feel, nothing against Mikey as a man but he has pissed me off far too many times with his football decisions with my favorite team in the world for me to give him credit for everything just for getting out of the way. I am giving the credit to Katie, Troy, Paul and Duke. It is obvious that these 4 are the ones instrumental in these changes for good, not Mikey.

Don't forget Paul Brown the 2nd, he's VP of Personnel.

Injuries happen to the best-conditioned teams.  The Bengals have been well below league average in injuries over the last several years. Timing and position have a lot to do with the impact of them though.  This year was the anomaly in both numbers and concentration in certain position groups.  We just happen to pay more attention to our team so it seems even worse.

I read tons of material in general, either through work or as a moderator.  Unfortunately, I haven't just picked up a book and read it for enjoyment in years.  I probably should.

That was supposed to say you do you, sorry. No offense at all. You do a great job. Luv ya man!

Glad Hue, Haslett and Lazor are gone.
