Bengals Assistant Jay Gruden "Hasn't Heard Anything" About Head Coaching Jobs

Found January 01, 2013 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Andy Dalton
TEAMS: Cincinnati Bengals
Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden hasn't been mentioned much for head coaching vacancies nor heard anything from those teams. Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden isn't concerned about it. In fact when asked about the head coaching rumors, Gruden said that the Bengals "haven't played the best football offensively the last couple weeks. I'm just trying to keep my job here." Despite Gruden saying that one of the head coaching vacancies are the furthest thing from his mind, he admitted on Tuesday that he hasn't been contacted or heard anything -- teams can't interview coaches in the Wild Card game this weekend, but can still schedule them. Yet our suspicions have been that Gruden remains an interesting prospect for teams employing young and inexperienced quarterbacks, citing Gruden's experience as an AFL head coach and work with Andy Dalton. We're not sure if that's enough though for an offensive coordinator that hasn't broken inside the top-20 yet. Source: SBNation.com

Three reasons the Cincinnati Bengals will win on Saturday

The Bengals defensive line is really good. The Bengals are in the top 3 for sacks this season and this is largely because of the play of the Bengals defensive line. The front 4 for the Bengals have generated 42 of the teams 51 sacks (that alone is better than 25 other NFL teams). This means the Bengals are able to generate a ton of pressure on opposing quarterbacks without fancy...

Are the tides changing in Cincinnati

Via WhoDeyFans  |  January 02, 2013
Earlier this week there was talk of the Bengals beefing up the front office. Add that to the fact that the Bengals have now been to the playoffs 3 out of the last 4 years and are a young team that only looks to improve and you could wonder if this is the beginning of a new Bengals era.

What I’ve Learned About The 2012 Bengals

Via WhoDeyFans  |  December 31, 2012
This season is easily divided into two chapters, split at the bye week. The first was awful and better left forgotten, marred by ineffectiveness and missed opportunities. Fortunately, the second chapter has featured what would seem to be a completely different. And that is the team that will be making the trip to Houston in a few days. I’ve learned several things about this team...
