The search for the Bengals new Defensive Coordinator has
stopped, they have signed 15-year veteran and former Falcons
and Cowboys coordinator, Mike Zimmer.
Here's an excerpt from Bengals.com
"No one hopes more than Marvin Lewis that the third time is
the charm. "I haven't gotten this right once before," said
Lewis, introducing Mike Zimmer as his third defensive
coordinator. "We needed to make a change. We needed to have
some fresh life, some new life. Lewis is asking the 15-year NFL
veteran to give him what apparently he hasn't received yet: "An
identity for our defensive football team," and Zimmer said he
wants a line-in-the-sand mentality while changing the
culture."
In other news, it appears that former Bengals coach, Hue
Jackson, could be brought back in some sort of role, to reign
in the more outspoken players. We'll keep you updated on
that.
