They still gave up 24+ points in 4 out of the 6 games he was DC.

There were improvements, that's for sure. But outside of the Steelers game, there wasn't much that makes me want Marvin back at DC.
Teams still averaged 23.8 PPG. Which would be 19th in the league.
Though, before that the Bengals gave up 31.2 PPG.

Another thing that needs to be addressed for the beginning of the season: The Bengals played 8 of the top 10 offenses in the NFL their first 10 games.
When Austin was DC, they went up against these offenses 9 times (played the Ravens twice).

It's not an excuse for Austin, cause he was pretty bad. But I just have little faith that Marvin is a better candidate for DC than other coaches out there
