Now that the Bengals have fired two coordinators in their last 24 games, is there reason for Marvin Lewis to worry about his own job security?
Lewis has had some great assistants in the past that have helped him take the Bengals to multiple playoff appearances. Mike Zimmer, Jay Gruden, and Hue Jackson were all successful coordinators for the Bengals before leaving to become head coaches. Dating back to last year however, it seems that Lewis’ luck (or maybe the list of good coaches he knows) has run out. The Bengals fired Ken Zampese in 2017 after 18 games as the offensive coordinator and have now fired Teryl Austin nine games into his stint with the Bengals.
