First, have you taken a look at Struts? It already has the most of the controller logic built for you so that you may concentrate on your business logic. Most of what I have read generally recommends having a layer between your web tier (servlets or actions) and your business tier. Your business tier should be the tier that acesses the database and should be independent of all web related logic. Having a layer between your web tier and you business tier will allow you to develop and maintain each seperately.

Check out this chapter from Professional Java Servlets for more information about web application architecture.
Hope it's useful...
