The offensive line was terrible. The WR's outside Green are bad. We had no running game most of the year.
Our defense was inconsistent. The secondary was bad against the pass. The LB's outside of Burfict were bad.
No coach is winning a playoff game with that.
True, this is not the most talented roster Marv has ever had. But the way he's lost is still the same: in the second half. It's no secret that Marv thinks in-game adjustments are "journalist jargon", and we've seen evidence of that for several years.
This team, despite its flaws, nearly beat Aaron Rodgers Green Bay packers and Pittsburgh... Twice. However, poor coaching ruined both opportunities (why Mixon never saw the ball in the second half of the first Pittsburgh game, I'll never understand). Those are three coulda shoulda woulda wins right there, pissed away in the second half thanks to a typical Marvin Lewis meltdown. Not Mike Brown.
