ESPN reports they are keeping this marriage together:With average facilities, a scant front office and questionable ownership, the Cincinnati Bengals were not going to land a more experienced and accomplished head coach than Marvin Lewis. Coming off a vastly underachieving 4-12 season, Lewis also wasn't going to land another head-coaching job this year in the NFL.In the end, neither the Bengals nor Lewis can do better, and that's the reason both parties are expected to extend their sometimes tenuous marriage. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Lewis is likely to work out an extension with the Bengals within the next 24 hours. But further details remain unclear.

Lewis wants major upgrades across the board. After eight seasons in Cincinnati, he has a clear vision of what it takes to compete annually with the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC North. That includes spending millions of dollars on free agents, hiring a general manager, beefing up the scouting department and building an indoor practice facility for the team.

But Bengals ownership, led by owner Mike Brown, has refused to agree to these upgrades in the past. That is why Lewis didn't sign a contract extension coming off a playoff appearance last year, despite numerous attempts by Bengals management.

Whether Lewis gets all of these improvements to sign a new deal this week remains to be seen. But based on Cincinnati's history, it's doubtful. Lewis has less leverage than he did a year ago, which means he could be "settling" for not getting everything he wants.

But this might be a win-win for both sides. The Bengals will return their experienced coach, who brought them out of the dark ages and led the team to two playoff appearances since 2005. At the same time, Lewis also can remain an NFL head coach and buy himself more time to improve his stock for better, more stable opportunities

So they just stay with this damn losing formula? This is a damn joke...It never ends...

Holy shit they are now reporting there has been a snag in talks and they have broke away from talks... You can only imagine whats going on, Marvin asking for seemingly small things and Mike trying to explain to him how we dont need these extra things, were moving in the right direction...
