I think so
Absolutely.
I don't think so.
First losing season since 2010
He will be fired, but I don't know if there are any coaches that will do better in Cincinnati.
There are no high profile college coaches to offer the job to. And no big name coordinators on the market right now.

I think so. They'll probably chalk it up as an off year. Those seasons do happen sometimes.
Plus is there anyone out there that's realistically available better? Might as well let him ride that contract for another year.

he should stay but who knows 
He's been there 14 years and hasn't won a playoff game. It's time to give another guy a shot. I do think they should move him to solely the GM/President of Football Operations role, he made great strides in that area for the Bengals. IIRC he does most of the day to day personnel stuff for them because the owner is technically still the 'GM'.
He is the personnel guy and the Bengals perennially have a top 5 team in that regard
I totally agree with all of that, but I do think you're sending a bad message that merely being a competent franchise is good enough if you keep Lewis around as the HC.
At some point, enough has to be enough... they've gotta make a playoff run one of these years.
As a life long Bengals fan the majority of us want him to Transition to another roll within the team and no longer be the head coach. We respect where he has helped lead us to where he got us to but that is the peak of where he was capable of getting us.
