1991-2002 showed Mike Brown's ineptitude and cheapness. We know what he's capable of on his own, and he still has some influence.

Since then, things have been better under Marv, but you can't help but feel we've underachieved. We've had 2 excellent core groups of players. You'd think we should've had a deep run or 3 during that span. You'd think Marv's record wouldn't be barely hovering over .500. Now whether or not Marv is what's held us back or the ultra-conservative approach to free agency (being kind here) is up for debate, but there's little doubt we've disappointed. You won't find many outside of a select few on here that won't admit that. 

Outside of this board, it's accepted fact that Mike Brown is an abysmal owner, Marvin Lewis is a choker and both core groups underachieved. 

Hey! Stop your whining! Asking for a team to try harder to get one, single, solitary playoff win in the last 26 years (something EVERY SINGLE NFL TEAM HAS BEEN ABLE TO DO IN THAT TIME--AND MORE) is just too much to ask for. Just thank your lucky stars that they've been able to make the playoffs 6 times in the last 8 years. Don't you know you're just snap decision away from being back in the '90s??

lol. Yeah, typing that made me throw up in my mouth a bit.
