Bengals signed coach Marvin Lewis to a two-year contract extension.
Lewis' deal follows recent extensions for DC Mike Zimmer and OC Jay Gruden. Cincinnati's coach since 2003, Lewis was entering a walk year. The longest-tenured head man in Bengals history, Lewis is just 69-74-1 lifetime, but has led the Bengals to three playoff appearances, and was the Associated Press' Coach of the Year in 2009. His accomplishments are impressive considering owner Mike Brown's spendthrift ways. It's a smart move for the Bengals.
