Marvin Lewis leaving Bengals

  • Might pursue another head coaching job somewhere else. Rumor is he's upset how his assistant coaches are treated by Bengals organization.

  • If he ends up in someone's front office instead of a coaching job, expect some additions to the Browns coaching staff.

    And expect the Bengals to slide back into "Bungles" mode.

  • Slightly different, "mutual-decision" spin from NFL.com.

  • I think it’s a power play move by him. Threaten to leave so assistants get new contracts. Who flinches first?

  • I like marvin lewis but a change of scenery might be good for both him and the team. The bengals never got over and his best players look to be aging out a bit. They're gonna go through another rebuild. 

    Its too bad vontaze might be done, id love for the browns to get him on the cheap. And he would absolutely come here, or to the ravens, to still play the steelers twice a year. Gid I love vontaze just for that hatred he has for the steelers. With him theres no "awww shucks wally" after the games with pgh.

    My thinking was you need " continuity" with a head coach. After today, I am officially on the fire Hue bandwagon.

    I hear ya man!  1-15 last year + 0-16 this year = continuity.  

    How about we raise the bar to Sickvsucky?  

    I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!"

  • Jay Glazer said on radio the Bengals will hope to land Hue, we can only dream

    👍

  • If his interest in Cincy is the reason he keeps trying to make us gag on Kizer - Jimmy should fire Hue Jmistake today.   I highly doubt Hue is just learning of his buddy's desire to step down but I've been wrong before...

  • It was a mutual decision.  Marvin and Mike Brown finally mutually concluded that Marvin is awful

  • Marvin said in his post game presser that he has not made up his mind.

    And the thought that Hue might jump to Cinci is gaining traction.

    Anyone volunteer to drive him to cincy after fishing him from the lake following the parade.

    Power play? I doubt that.......

    .......Lewis has guided the Bengals to five straight playoff appearances from 2011-2015 and an 8-0 start in 2015, both firsts in franchise history, and holds the record for most wins as a Bengals head coach. Despite this success, Lewis has been unable to lead the Bengals to a postseason win. His seven postseason losses are the most of any coach who has never won a playoff game, and his 14 years as an NFL head coach make him second to Jim E. Mora for most seasons coached without a playoff win......

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

    Word is the Ben-gals probably want Hue back.

    DUMBEST LOGIC EVER. Continuity IS NOT an ingredient to building a successful team. Continuity IS what management engages in when something works.

    Only a jackoff believes that sticking with failure woll grow into success. Dumbest fuscking thing I have ever read.....BUT BUT BUT....leave it to Browns fans to cling on to fuktard euphemisms.

    I called.for firing Hue after 1 quarter of the first 2016 preseason game. You guys were so sure I was trolling.....but now.....2 years later....You fall in line.

    Browns fans = Dumb fans

    The Cleveland Browns have the hardest hit players in the NFL

    I'm not a big fan of Hue Jackson, but the side of the coin you're espousing would be more fruitless.  Fire a guy after one quarter of one PRESEASON game?

    In this age of instant gratification who knows?  That may happen.  Come out for 2nd quarter and announce that X is now the head coach.  Or the #1 draft pick is a bust, so he's been cut.

    I can't see this being the model of success in any sport.  Certainly won't lead to going from 0-16 to 19-0 in one season that most people on these boards think is possible, when the owner doesn't want to spend money on FAs.
