Our coaches have to work much harder than other coaching staffs because our coaches are being held back by the owner. The coaches on all these other teams have access to decent free agent vets almost every year to fill holes. Our coaches don't get that.
The Bengals have outperformed most teams in the league over the last several years despite working with a handicap. I don't see how you can call that "poor coaching".
As good of a coach as Belichick is I doubt he would have as many rings if the front office did not get him top level players like Corey Dillon, Randy Moss, Darrelle Revis, Mike Vrabel, and Aquib Talib.
It is both poor coaching and the owner's refusal to sign decent FA's.
It is both that has held this team back from getting over that Playoff hump is all i am saying.
This Offseason has been different that the FO signed decent FA's in their prime, trading for Glenn, adding Preston
Brown and Chris Baker. Then topping it off with a very good Draft and finally adding a stud Center. Now that we
have a very good aggressive in your face O-line coach and an innovative OC i believe we can get over that Playoff
hump.

So refreshing. My favorite addition this Offseason has to be Pollack. :andy:
