Bengals are working on Coach Lewis’ contract extension

The Cincinnati Bengals do not want their head coach Marvin Lewis to coach those wearing New Orleans Saints jerseys, so they are now working on a contract extension with Lewis, who would love to stay as long as the team’s offer is alluring enough.

“Mike and I at some point hopefully come to an agreement from both sides of us and we all feel good about,” Lewis told the Cincinnati Enquirer. “We have spoken about the contract a few times since then but we don’t talk about it daily. That’s not me to worry about it or bring it up. I don’t go about it that way. I would love to continue to coach here. I think every year is a new challenge, a new start and hell we’ve got Ocho.”

Although the Bengals do not lure a quarterback like the one in No.4 Brett Favre jersey, Lewis still has a strong reason to stay with team: he is getting along very well with the Bengals owner Mike Brown, who is always supporting the coach’s decision and offers as much help as possible.
