So go back and tell me how many times oneof the top 6 teams in the league has fired their coach. It is very very rare.
I agree that top 5 teams replacing their coaches during winning stretches isn't the norm. But, that's the problem. What the Bengals have done doesn't fall into the 'norm' category either. There has never been another period in NFL history where one of the top NFL's top 5 teams (or any team for that matter) lost 5 consecutive playoffs games. It isn't just a rare happening, it had literally never happened before the Bengals did it. That one fact sets it apart and makes it truly unique (in terms of postseason ineptness) when it comes to other examples in NFL history.
