A good coach knows it's going to take time to build a winning team. The Bengals are one of the few teams that will give you ample time.
Time does not translate to success, as the Bengals have shown. Marvin has taken his hits, but Mike Brown has shoulder a lot of the blame for the joke this franchise has become. I think the success has been in spite of him, not because of him. Successful teams have also fired coordinators mid-season, had first or second year coaches go on and win. If the owner won't let you get rid of a coordinator or staff for the sake of stability, how is that beneficial? Stability and being stale are separate things and this franchise has shown what it is.
