He understands how bad Bengals were when Marvin Lewis came in, he gets that. Still he says when a coach goes from 2003 to 2018 without winning a play-off game, any other franchise would have fired him 5 years ago. It sends a message by Bengals owners to the Fans that they are not striving for excellence. That mediocrity is accepted. That the Bengals Fans can just shut up and pay their money no matter how bad the team is. So Marvin should have been gone a long time ago. As for Hue Jackson his 3 wins in 3 years at Cleveland does not earn him a head coaching job right away. Marvin recommended him. To that Stephen Jackson says Marvin couldn't win a play-off game, if I'm Bengals owners I don't want to hear a damn thing Marvin has to say about who replaces him. When asked who Bengals will hire, he said the cheapest person and that is why they are the Bengals.
Now these are Stephen Jackson words on ESPN, not mine. The video is on internet to watch.
Well i agree on Marv, don't listen to a damn thing he says. This is why i don't see Hue even having a chance, he was Marv's buddy. Also i don't know if he is right about us getting the cheapest guy to be our new HC. Seems different around here and i don't think Mikey is running things now. Katie, Troy, Paul and Duke are running things from what i am hearing and what i am concluding.
We needed to make this change years ago he is correct so i don't see us lowballing the new HC and screwing this up. We paid Geno and Dunlap just last year big dough and we need to back that investment with a high quality hire.
