Sorry, it just didn't make sense that you've been defending a coach for 10 years that is almost universally panned by the same experts whose opinions you apparently value. To answer your question, yes coaches should be given 3 years to prove themselves either way. It's tough to formulate a solid opinion after only a year or two. Chip Kelly started off looking like he'd be better than Marv. Now look. Ron Riviera looked pretty bad after 2 seasons...now he has 3 division titles, a SB apperance and 3 playoff wins.

6. AJ McCarron has a 68.3 rating, which would still rank dead last among active players, if he qualified. 4 different QB's...all terrible under Marvin Lewis. Just makes me wonder. Not sure what you're driving at with what you said about Schaub. He was washed up by the time the Raiders signed him.

4. Only been defending Marvin from the experts on here that blame him for everything. So you disagree with the coach's ranking and feel Marvin should be ahead of Adam Gase and Dan Quinn; fair enough. I think they have shown enough promise to currently get the nod over Marvin.

6. How could AJ be dead last with 68.3 while Andy boasts a 57.8. True there have been 4 QBs that have played under Marvin any idea who the worst is? Let's look at the games and see if we can find a reason:

Pitt 05: Carson was getting ready to blow up Pittsburgh anyone who questions that is either fooling themselves or being disingenuous. Kitna comes in cold and throws as many playoff TDs as Andy has in his Career,

NYJ 09:  Game was on a field that was a sheet of ice

11-14: 3 games played indoors and one game played in perfect outdoor conditions. QB combines for a passer rating of 57.8

Pitt 15: Played in the rain and Starting his 3rd ever NFL game AJ McCarron has a passer rating that is 10 points higher than the combined playoff rating of the Bengal QB that had started the previous 4'

Of course if one wanted to go with the "It's the coach" slant then one would expect both Palmer and Kitna to do better in their playoff games under different coaches. Do you need me to share those numbers with you
