TDBH: Lewis puts finishing touches on first staff in biggest coaching overhaul in Bengals history

The unveiling of new head coach Marvin Lewis’ staff is to take place tomorrow in a Paul Brown Stadium news conference but the far-reaching implications are felt today with the departure of the beloved Ken Anderson and the anticipated arrival of Ricky Hunley. The coming and going are symbolic of the biggest coaching overhaul in club history and proof, the pundits say, that Bengals president Mike Brown is giving Lewis the power to rebuild a team coming off its worst season ever. By the time it’s said and done there are 10 new coaches from seven different programs.

Anderson is one of five coaches with a combined 98 years as Bengals players or coaches who are leaving in head coach Dick LeBeau, strength and conditioning coach Kim Wood, defensive coordinator Mark Duffner and defensive line coach Tim Krumrie, another Bengals’ icon, and a shining example of the sea change.
