The New Bengals Expectation

Marvin isn't on a huge extension with a 4 year WC loss streak hanging over his head, we have tons of starters coming off the books, and we have others with outs in their deals.

I don't know if there will be a huge turnaround, and maybe this time next year we'll be talking about how Marvin and Andy are showing off their Super Bowl rings together. If not, and if there are big changes that MB wishes to make, he will have his chance in 2016 more so than ever before.

I'm not sure why people are taking what I'm saying the wrong way, but tldr; If Mike Brown wants to make big changes, next offseason will be the most opportunistic time if you look at everything in detail. I believe that's why a lot of fans are calling this year a "now or never year".

 I understood your point and agreed with some of it.

I just added losing happens for many reason. The HC and the QB may or may not be the reason if it happens in 2015. There are a ton of reasons why we could fail. If MB was looking for a reason to fire ML, he had it after 2010 season and the 4-12 record. As for AD, I agree with you he may or may not be a Bengal in 2016 if he does not cut down on turnovers or play well this season.

I just don't see a major turnover regardless of how we do in 2015.
