CINCINNATI -- Another four-win season jolted the Cincinnati Bengals back to reality.
In coach Marvin Lewis' sixth season, the Bengals found themselves back in the bad old days. They started 0-8. They finished last in the league in offense. They headed into the offseason with a mess on their hands.
There are going to be a lot of changes on the roster. The Bengals have a lot of decisions to make about their running backs, their receivers and their offensive line. Do they trade Chad Ocho Cinco after a subpar season? Do they use their franchise tag on receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh? Do they try to keep running back Cedric Benson?
In that sense, change is coming. But what about the bigger issues, the ones that have held the franchise back for 18 years? Is owner Mike Brown going to hire a general manager, turn the team over to someone with a respected football background, and let Lewis have more say in what goes on?
Of course not.
