I don't think he's acting that way, I just heard someone- I think maybe John Clayton - infer that Lewis would gladly part ways with Cincy at this point. Crazy how fortunes change in this league. It wasn't too long ago he was Brian Billick's D-Coordinator for a Super Bowl Champion. Now Billick is out of coaching all together and Lewis isn't far behind.

Don't forget about the fact that he made a stop here in 2002 and made us a top 5 defense. That was suppose to prove that he didn't need Ray Lewis and company to run a great defense. There were points during Spurrier and early in Gibbs 2.0 where I had wish we made him the head coach instead, but like you said it's crazy how quickly this league can turn on you.

He was the only reason we won 7 games and not 3 during Spurrier's first season.
