Please enlighten us with explaining that insane BS.
So, please enlighten us in how a team that went 2-14 and made only a few changes in its starting lineup somehow won 4 times as many games the next season with a new coach but it was NOT because of the new coach.
Wasn't much change in roster? Tory James, John Thornton and Kevin Hardy were not regular yearly FA signings by the Bengals. Marvin got more FA money than any previous HC in Cincinnati and Taylor has recieved way more than ML.
And how did Dick LeBeau get involved in all of this? You need me to detail how Marvin Lewis is better as a HC than Dick LeBeau in the Zac Taylor thread? You are aware that Marvin coached beyond 2005, right? Do you have any evidence of Lewis out coaching anyone other than the one time Bill Parcels was bullshitting the press to cover the pathetic play of Quincy Carter?
