I think Marvin could have been more successful with competent ownership elsewhere, he's certainly a hell of a lot better than what we got with Shula, Coslett, LeBeau.
That being said, even if you agree with that premise, it doesn't matter for us because his window to be an effective leader here has closed. It's clear the players no longer buy in. It's a lame duck staff and it's time to move in a different direction. Can we ever be successful with MB running the show? I doubt it. But we can't change that, only time will. And that time is coming soon enough Bengal fans. Let's just hope we get a competent coaching hire who can field a decent team with some of the foundational pieces we have until Mike's grip in the franchise is released and we get some competent ownership.
