Please let me point out that Zimmer and Gruden took their squads to the playoffs in their 2nd year (in weaker divisions, however) and had nowhere near the talent ML does on the Bengals. Same results in the end, though.
Both took over teams that were just one year removed from making the playoffs and both had losing records their first season.
Marvin took over a team that had not made the playoffs in over a decade and had a .500 record his first season.
