Bengals extend Marvin Lewis through 2010

http://www.bengals.com/news/news.asp?story_id=5086 Great move, IMO!

Marvin: “The stability of our excellent staff will be a key as we continue building toward a world championship team."

Re: Bengals extend Marvin Lewis through 2010

The first of (hopefully) many teams realizing that the knee-jerk "FIRE THE COACH!" reaction after a season where the team failed to live up to expectations is not the way to go.

The Pittsburgh model (players are replaceable if the coaching is of a high calibur) is one that should be emulated in the NFL, IMO.

Re: Bengals extend Marvin Lewis through 2010

looking at the team's record before and since Lewis took over, this is a spectacular move.

When did Cowher become a coach of high calibur?

I think the Bengals lived up to expectations... probably even exceeded them.

The Pittsburgh model... I've never heard that one before.

Don't forget to celebrate loudly and jubilantly as the maimed QB is being carted off the field.

Well, I was talking about the players on the field, but for the fans in the bleachers, yep, you bet.

Only instead of the circular motion you shake it up and down in a "bye bye" motion.
