Expected this. It's not that he was bad, but his system just didn't work in Cleveland and he never had, shall I say, the needed cool or enthusiastic moods a coach needs. He just limpidly went about things as if he was already going through the motions. Hopefully he can find a job as a coordinator in an NFC west-coast style system - I think that's his fit. He's just not AFC NORTH material imo.

I'm on the fence on this one.
On one side, the team has "improved" from last year. The games are closer and they are more disciplined. If they gained more talent through the future draft and in free agency, the team could improve even more. There's something to be said for staying the course and developing consistency in a program.
On the other side, the bottom line is that the team has won 5 games in each of the last two years. Last year was highlighted by 4 straight wins to end the season. This year, our mid-season surge ended abruptly with a 2-6 record to end the season.
The local paper is already speculating that Mike Holmgren himself will return to the sideline next year to coach the Browns.

Marvin Lewis gets extension of 1 year
Wasn't the issue of Marvin Lewis' status after this year a distraction all year? Why are they willing to do it all over again next year? I think with the labor negotiations still unsettled and next year still up in the air, this was more of a money move by the Bengals...

Holmgren's always been an offensive minded coach. It looks like he'll look for a similar minded coach as the next candidate. This spells good news for Colt McCoy....
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HE'S MINE!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks like you'll be winning the Harbaugh sweepstakes. Hope he's worth $8mil a year!!!
