But this just is not true. talent has a lot to do with it and Marvin has had inferior talent in every playoff game except one.
so in the simplistic world were the only thing that matters is the coach I guess every team should fire their coach every year that they don't win a playoff game. but in the real world where people look at all the variables it makes sense to keep a coach who is winning instead of firing him and replacing him with someone who has not accomplished as much. if the team was losing every year then it is okay to take a chance on an unknown, but when a tyeam is winning consistently you should not fire the coach unless you have a proven upgrade. or unless he is losing with clearly superior talent.
WTF are you talking about? Broncos fired their coach.... BETTER. Panthers... BETTER. Jets... BETTER. Cardinals... BETTER. And that is just recent memory.
The Bengals have had one of the most talented rosters in the NFL the past 2 or 3 seasons and were better or even to the Texans both games, better than the Chargers, worse than the Colts, and better than the Steelers. Marvin's squads with Carson that went to the Playoffs were better or even to the Steelers in 2005 and better than the Jets team that they lost to as well.
He's also had better talent in prime time and his record is trash there, too. Players play within a game plan just like a soldier fights within battle plan. Coaches coach just like generals lead. Marvin Lewis chokes in prime time and especially the playoffs and he has done it regardless of talent or roster over a 13 year head coaching career. To ignore such and make excuses for him is asinine. Other coaches around the league keep getting it done with much less and you keep making excuses why this guy can't do jack rabbit with much more.
Your post above is just the absolute most disgusting head up ass example of homer-ism I have maybe ever seen on either message board old or new. You and Marvin should get a room.
