Sent from my iPhone using Go-Bengals.com Considering there are only 32 NFL head coaching jobs available, my guess is plenty of people. This team is not in the same place it was the last time it was looking for a head coach. It has been successful most of the past several years, and is loaded with talent.

Randle P McMurphy Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 I know a lot of us were clamoring for Mike Zimmer but the Vikings imploded this year and there was talk of a mutiny by the Vikings CB's in yesterday's game. I know they had some OL injuries but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much. Shotgun journalism - print a bunch of "rumors" and hope some of it hits. If you're right it's a big scoop and if not it's forgotten. Forbes is a weird source, though.

Sent from my iPhone using Go-Bengals.com LB coach Jim Haslet. Part of/familiar with the organization (beholding to the Browns for a job), head coaching experience (although sucky). Won't upset the apple cart and no changes to the MikeandKatie Brown noser coordinators. And I agree with everyone and hope I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep although I don't think they would have performed any better at QB with Bridgewater than what they did with Bradford. btw the friggin stoolers won.

Griever Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 I refuse to get my hopes up about this because as soon as I do, Marv will probably get an extension. Would be quite the Christmas miracle though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snarkster Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Couldn't think of a better way to this ass-fucj of a year, but it ain't happenin.' I'd love to see it just to shit can alexander (although the ne Browns next pick will probably such an inbred one that they'll keep). I'm probably the only one, but every time Mr. Marvins speaks anymore, all I hear is: Didn't do our jobs, mkay. Losin's bad, mkay. Gotta do our jobs, mkay. Jobs are important, mkay.

|Numbers| Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Forbes is not wrong. There were rumors from a consistent source at the last home game. There will be promotions from within but the head coaching position is being offered outside the organization. Take it for what it's worth but knowing the source, I consider it reliable. Not sure how Forbes got ahold of the story but it's been out there for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If HC is an outside hire but they intend to promote from within (God help us), that would have to mean some other coaches are getting fired, too.
