He quit because of the front office.  Thank God he did.

Things have changed quite a bit since he pulled his stunt and it turned out GREAT for the Bengals.  I hated to see him go, but I also hated to see the Bengals operating the way that they did.

WHOA! WHOA! WHOA! Come on now! Shocked

We were there last night and it was as loud as I've ever heard it. My wife and I kept saying Marvin's conservative style just ain't gonna cut it. Marvin does not understand the value of momentum. As soon as they let the home team get an ounce of hope, that stadium changed dramatically. It was way louder once they got back into it. This made it exponentially harder to move the ball in the 2nd half. I didn't expect our Bengals to win this one, but it sucks they let it slip away by being stubborn and sticking to the Marvin way.

Yeah, there were several of us in the Gameday thread saying at the end of the second quarter that we had to keep the pedal to the metal and not let up in the second half.  But, we did and we lost.  You would think we would be used to it by now, but it really stinks.

We made comments in the gameday thread that the crowd seemed louder (with momentum in the 3rd) than when they started the game. Too bad. I'm guessing Denver fans are nice to other teams fans? It's nowhere like that in Cleveland, city of drunks.
