If the head ball coach is notorious for coaching a team that chokes (Marv had this reputation 10 years ago), then why do people think Dalton is somehow immune to that? He's a player just like anyone else, and all players have choked under Marv. Including the golden boy.
Palmer was terrible in prime time for Cincy, yet he's been great in that department since he left.
You'll never get an argument from me that Marvin is a huge issue. I been calling for him to get fired so long that Ochokrapo was still a good player at the time. I don't think Marvin brings anything to the table scheme wise. I think he's an administrator and relies on his coordinators for game plans and scheme. He made his bones in Baltimore coaching probably the best defense ever, not sure there was a whole lot of defensive genius needed to coach that crew up, it was an amazing assembly of talent. He def has diddly squat to do with the offense....
What I'm saying that while Marvin is def an issue, I can't give Andy any sort of pass for his individual tendency to shart himself in the biggest games. If he had played relatively decent but was just being criticized for not getting the W's, I would agree.
Being a Bengals fan is like being in love with a narcissist. It's a brutal, emotionally abusive relationship but I never leave and just keep making excuses for them.
