Our best Coach, believe under Simmons we had the best ST's unit in the league.
Nice move. Lets move on from the Secondary coaches though please. WJ3 is too talented to have played this poorly IMO.

He needs to be our head coach

What a relief. I would have been absolutely outraged, had I read a thread titled "Darrin Simmons replaced".
That guy has been one constant, throughout all of the changes that have happened around here in the past 18 years. Thanks for your dedication and service, Coach Simmons! Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations -Frank Booth 1/9/23

I have read on here MB is the devil so no way a respected coach stayed here. I will wait for the retraction. 2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.

Definitely a good re-signing on our part. I could see this being his last contract with us though.

Thankfully the OP got the word "re-sign" right instead of resign. I was nervous there for a minute.

I'm glad he's coming back. He's been one of the few bright spots on the coaching staff over the last decade plus. I wonder what his thinking is though? Does he really believe the Bengals will turn it around and become contenders? Why wouldn't he look for a team with a better chance at a championship? He is supposed to be really well respected among other NFL coaches, wouldn't another team be trying to lure him away when his contract expired?

I could see them transitioning him to head coach next year if ZT doesn't work out. Let's face it ST coaches make the best head coaches.

That may well have been part of the talk for new contract ? Plus he must not have been getting much attention from the teams still needing new HC. |
