CINCINNATI -- Remember the memory-zapping contraption from the movie "Men in Black"?

If Marvin Lewis could, he'd get his hands on one, call a franchisewide meeting and use it to flash every player, coach, trainer, scout and team personnel member who was around for the Cincinnati Bengals' disappointing early exit from January's playoffs. Lewis sees 2016 as a brand-new year. Nothing -- and he literally means zero -- from last season ought to carry over from 2015.

"It's what you do this year. That's what kind of motivates you -- or you're not here anymore," Lewis said, cracking a smile.
