Making back-to-back final four appearances in the NFL is an impressive feat, but not finishing atop the mountain leaves one hungry for more. Cincinnati Bengals quarterback coach Dan Pitcher certainly feels that way.
Pitcher had a chance to take a promotion. He interviewed twice for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator position this offseason, a job that could fast-track his chances of becoming a future head coach. Instead of jettisoning to Florida, Pitcher opted to stay in Cincinnati for another run at the Super Bowl.
“I just didn’t feel like this was the time to leave Cincinnati,” Pitcher told Geoff Hobson of Bengals.
