Allegedly, according to reports, his job is safe. I'm not buying it, though. The collapse of the Bengals was so complete yesterday, how can the owner justify keeping the coaching staff? http://www.sportingnews.com/nfl-new...job-safe-cincinnati-bengals-coach-afc-playoff
Cincinnati has only three losing seasons in Lewis' 13 years and has reached the playoffs five years in a row, with double-digit regular-season wins each of the last four years. Get rid of a winning coach, sounds genius. Tough lost Vikings, that missed field goal will eat his soul all year round.
Agreed! Sometimes teams simply give away a game they should've won, but this one is so much more. The Bengals head coach clearly did not have control of his players. The tension was thick as heck, but the Steelers did much better at staying composed.
And yet, he's won ZERO post-season games. They HAD the game on Saturday. Had the win. Two of his players screwed it all up. It shows he can't control them, which means they don't have respect for him. The Chicago Bears didn't respect Marc Trestman and it showed by how they played on the field. You can't come back from that...but apparently, you can, since his job is likely safe.
Looks like the Rams are moving back to Los Angeles. Looks like I'm a Rams fan (Sorry RaiderLL):freehug:
Nobody wants that sorry team back there lol. Raiders deserved to go back. I'm pissed...possible understatement of the year lol.
That state spent so much money getting them there and now they are moving. Lol Waste of money. They (states) need to stop the welfare for these teams.
I wouldn't get too attached. Once the new stadium gets to be too old (which is about 15 years) they'll be back in St. Louis, San Antonio, or whatever city it is that they can use for leverage to get more public money. I think the Raiders still have a chance to move next year if the Chargers don't do it first. But why would anyone voluntarily leave San Diego? And does LA really want football back? It's not like the traffic out there isn't bad enough as it is.
Yea we still have the option to move if the Chargers don't. SD is nice but it's not a football city. There's very few loyal charger fans. Most have their regular team that they support (their home team), but they throw a bone at the Chargers just cause they live in SD. Sympathy fans None of us want our tax dollars going to their new stadium so let them go LA wants the Raiders back. Heck with the Rams and the Chargers!
I hate the idea of publicly financed stadiums. These guys are billionaires! Let them build their own goddamn stadiums.
Now that the NFL can no longer hold moving to LA over other cities heads. What will they use as leverage to get money for new stadiums?
Lol talking about controlling pac man Jones of all players who has a history of wilding out. Apparently your fresh to the steelers and Bengals rivalry and also are unfamiliar with why the Bengals lost the majority of there post season games but I'll let you have at it arm chair owner, gm, and coach.
I'm too worried about the Packers/Bears rivalry to care about the Steelers/Bengals rivalry. That being said, as I look around at the coaches that are being interviewed for the plethora of open HC positions around the league, it makes more sense to keep Marvin Lewis, as there isn't anyone around who is good enough to replace him at the moment. It'll be interesting to see how the Bengals are next season though. If the coach can keep control of his players. And I'm of the belief that no matter how good a player is, if he's problematic, cut him. I hope the Bengals cut, at the very least, Burfict.
