The ONLY way Marvin could get decent players was to develop draft picks or turn around players that had not produced under other coaches. If you want to claim Mike was a good GM just for re-signing his own players then tell me which GMs were worse.
Allso there is this....
Mike Brown with Marvin Lewis as head coach..... .527 winning %, playoffs 7 of 15 years, 5 losing seasons in 15 years.
Mike Brown with all other head coaches............. .286 winning %, playoffs 0 of 12 years, 11 losing season in 12 years.
You are the one that needs to prove that during each and every season that Marvin has coached here (15 total), Mike Brown performed the worst (32nd overall) when compared to all other owners during each and every one of those Marvin seasons.
Just admit that there have been seasons where Marvin has had more to work with than at least some other NFL owners were able to provide their Coaches during that particular season.
Marvin does not start out in 32nd place year after year when it comes to Ownership provided resources.
Get real...
