I have seen nothing that shows in any wya that Marvin took over a better team than either Zimmer or Gruden.  never said they were great teams.  Just showing that they were in better shape than the bengals team that marvin inherited.

Ummmm how?
Rudi Johnson, Chad Johnson, TJ Houshmandzadeh, Levi Jones, Willie Anderson, Takeo Spikes, Brian Simmons, and Corey Dillon.

And those are just a few guys. There were building blocks already there. Gruden and Zimmer both have had some building blocks but ultimately have also had to do what Marvin did. Get a franchise QB and build around him. Granted, Gruden had Cousins on his roster but choosing him over RGIII was a big move to make.

Marvin did some great things, but let's not act like he built it completely from scratch.
