News: BR: Commanders Rumors: Marvin Lewis a Strong Contender to Become Team's Next HC

[MojaveJT]

Better them than us but with Jerry at the helm, it could be someone similar.

 

[cowboyec]

HC/GM.

 

[cowboy_ron]

So, Snyder, like Jerry would is selecting a new head coach before he figures out what he's going to do with his GM.....lol

 

[Cowboys22]

That franchise is so messed up and they are still in the same place they were when they hired Jay Gruden. No one wants that job unless the other 31 teams and all major colleges are not interested in hiring them. The only coaches they have to choose from are those coaches who have no other options.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

man marvin lewis needs to be the last head coach anyone should hire.

Just goes to show you, what Jerry was saying about Garrett might actually be true. He will be coaching in the NFL next year. Hard to believe but maybe that's true......

Plan b: Jeff Fisher

 

[nightrain]

LOL.....a joke?

[cowboyblue22]

no one really knows at this point but why would a team hire him he had a fair regular season record but never won a playoff game but I hope they do just the jones cowboys

Another thread where folks only read the title.

From the article “According to Alex Marvez of SiriusXM NFL Radio, Lewis is a "strong contender" for the job and may have already interviewed with Commanders owner Daniel Snyder in the Bahamas.”

We’re now sourcing satellite radio hosts. I guess they have eave dropping capabilities available via dem satellites.

Hope it’s true though.

God Bless the Skins. As horrible as this season has been for us, and believe me when I say it's been so bad that I try not to even think about it, it's moments like this that I can still get a laugh from.

Thank you Commanders Nation!

The Commanders exist to cheer up the Cowboys.

Would leave one crazy owner for another.

 

[CouchCoach]

I wouldn't be so quick to celebrate, Lewis is well respected and he worked under the same type of owner in CIN, only he just kept bringing in the bad actors for Lewis to babysit.

Since Rivera has been mentioned too, looks like the Skins are going the direction I want Booger to go. Fix the D.

I don't know HC's as well as the rest of you and think Belichick is a failure because of Cleveland. And Carroll because of NYJ and Johnson because of Miami and Parcells because of Dallas.

Commanders Rumors: Marvin Lewis a 'Strong Contender' to Become Team's Next HC



Former Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis is reportedly in the running to be named the next head coach of the Washington Commanders ...

Read Full Story

Pleeeeeeeeeeeassssssssssssssse Santa! This one more thing??????

More soberly... as a Nats fan, I have been told by another Nats fan that this is likely muchado about only a desire by Snyder to be perceived as considering a black head coach, following a WaPo story from a couple of days ago that highlighted that as an issue.

Ron Rivera is the odds-on favorite on the streets in and around DC.

I wouldn't be so quick to celebrate, Lewis is well respected and he worked under the same type of owner in CIN, only he just kept bringing in the bad actors for Lewis to babysit.

But he's really not (well respected).

And though it's correct Mike Brown is almost certainly the worst owner in all of professional sports, it's generally accepted in Cincinnati that Lewis eventually was able to gain final say in the draft room... to middling results... yes, they got better, but only for awhile before they got worse.

Lewis, if he wants to be respected again, really has to go back to spending some time as someone's DC, imo.

 

[Cowfan75]

Imagine what that would do to your morale if you're a Commanders player. The agony of this season isn't even over and you hear Marvin Lewis may be your next HC.

 

[quickccc]

i would have thought Mike McCarthy would be more of a head liner than Marvin Lewis. lol

 

[KJJ]

They’ll be a mass suicide in Washington if they go with Marvin Lewis. lol He only had 6 winning seasons in 16 years as the Bengals head coach and was 0-7 in the playoffs. Do it Danny boy do it!

 

[mattjames2010]

A coach you bring in for 4 years or so to build a team up. He's not a long term coach that will get you to the final destination.

He won’t be building them up. His coaching career ended with three straight losing seasons. He needs to stick to doing studio work. Lewis has to be one of the most undesirable candidates out there. Don’t believe me check his head coaching record. Great coach if you’re looking not to win anything.
