Everyone expected Marvin Lewis to move on after the 2017 season. It took a while for the team to make a decision, but they’ll keep Lewis around for 2018 after signing him to a two-year extension.

Cincinnati Bengals president Mike Brown made the news official on Tuesday. “Marvin Lewis has been an important member of the Cincinnati community and the Bengals family for the past 15 years, and we are happy to have reached this agreement,” said Brown on the team’s website. “Marvin has made significant contributions during his time here. While recently we have fallen short of our expectations, we have full confidence in Marvin to re-establish winning football in 2018.”

Rumors started circulating during Week 15 that Lewis’ time in Cincinnati was coming to an end. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Lewis would leave coaching and pursue other opportunities. Lewis denied it.

Black Monday came and went without a decision on Lewis’ future. Lewis’ contract is up with Cincinnati, but he said that the situation is more complicated than Brown offering him an extension and Lewis accepting.

"There's a direction the owner wants to have. ... And if his direction is different than my direction, then that's probably not good,” Lewis said, via ESPN’s Katherine Terrell. “We just have to make sure we're all on the same page."

The Bengals took a 34-7 loss to the Vikings on the Sunday that the rumors surfaced. They did manage to spoil the Ravens’ postseason hopes with a thrilling Week 17 win, sending the Buffalo Bills to the playoffs for the first time in 17 years.

Why is Lewis sticking around? The Bengals value continuity above all else. Lewis has been a stabilizing presence since being hired in 2003, giving the organization some much-needed respect and dignity after an embarrassing run of ineptitude in the 90s. While he’s most known for never winning a playoff game, Lewis owns a 125-113-3 record in Cincy, reaching the postseason seven times with four division titles.

I was wondering if winning those last two games might save his job. The Bengals are so pathetic I thought that might be enough

No coach in any sport would still have a job if they did as poorly for so long

Boy if Dorsey is worth 50 cents in Cleveland they should be fighting real soon for a Div championship. They have some decent players on that team. 2 draft picks in the top 4. If Dorsey took that job without having the authority to fire Hue Jackson, well ...I take it all back.

Big Ben likely gone. Balty and Cincy are clusterfks.

Throughout his entire tenure he has been 1 of the lowest paid coaches in the league. There were a few coordinators making more than him at one point, and this was after the Bengals became a playoff team.

So that is 1 of the reasons they keep him, because he works below market rate.

The Bengals do business much different than most other teams. They reward loyalty. They have more players on their roster from within their organization and development league than any other team in the NFL. I heard one of the announcers mention it .

It's good to be black in 2017......Although they still act like they have it so bad.

So many corrections need to be made in this country.

The Bengals have had some pretty low moments during the Marvin Lewis era.
The aftermath of their loss to the Browns may just be the lowest of them all.
Coming into the game at 5-5 and still very much alive in the playoff race, the Bengals did their best impersonation of <s style="box-sizing: border-box;">the Louisville </s><s style="box-sizing: border-box;">Cardinals</s> a team with the NFL’s worst record.

The Bengals, simply put, played as badly as you’ll see an NFL team play. They were thoroughly outplayed and out-coached in every way imaginable by a 3-6-1 team with an interim coaching staff as they fell behind 35-7 early in the third quarter. Now, the Bengals are 5-6 and the Browns are 4-6-1. The Bengals might just finish the season with a worse record than the Browns, who they play again in a few weeks.



The Bengals defense is still historically bad, even with Marvin Lewis now running the show. The defense might be worse with Lewis at defensive coordinator after back-to-back losses to rookie quarterbacks.
The offense remains an unmitigated disaster without A.J. Green.
The team has no discipline.
Paul Brown Stadium had a stronger Brownspresence today, and for good reason based on what took place on the field.

Even before Andy Dalton left the game, the Bengals were still getting dominated as if the Browns were one of the NFL’s elite teams.
The garbage time scores that made this look better shouldn’t matter.
Today, the Bengals were one of, if not the worst team in the NFL.
The Bengals need to fire Marvin Lewis immediately.
They likely won’t, and it won’t be a surprise if Lewis is back next season, but it still needs to be said, even if it falls on deaf ears once more. Lewis has worn out his welcome in Cincinnati, and he is now taking this franchise back down to the depths it was in before he arrived.
The Bengals are now 5-6 and have lost five of their last six contests, and five of their losses this year are by double digits, including 30+ point blowouts to the Saintsand Chiefs.

The Lewis-era needs to end, but will it end before it’s too late and we’re right back to 90s Bengals football?
We can only hope that something happens before it’s allowed to get that bad, but as long as Lewis is here, things will continue to get worse before they get better.

Tough to blame this season on Lewis. Bengals were playoff bound and they lost their best offensive weapon and now their QB

The team lacks leadership and Dalton sucks. We need a QB and a coach that will get in the face of lazy ads receivers like Ross and rip their ass on poor run routes and not 110% hustle.
