"Marvin did some good things"

[740Bengal]

He did some good things throughout the duration of the football games he's coached. Unfortunately at the end we didn't do what we needed to do in the football games to win the games needed.

A long time from now those things will be more appreciated but after last half decade and especially last 2 seasons and the playoff meltdown the guy needs to go i feel bad for him but he’s just not a good coach.

You could not find a more apt description of Merv's time with the Bengals.

Deer in the headlights on the sidelines...we got where we got on the laurels of Mike Zimmer and to a certain extent Jay Gruden.

When Zimm left, the team eventually followed.

Probably Mike Browns exact words 3 weeks from now.



As he introduces Alexander as the new Bengals HC.

This was so clever, it required a new thread.

Personally I have zero animosity for Marv. I'm just ready for a fresh start and some new blood. 16 years is a long time in this league without a break. Marvin has probably been putting in 16 hour days, almost every day of the year, for 16 years. He could probably use a mental break too

If Zimmer was our head coach this team would be 10-3 or 9-4 at the very least. Loosing Zimmer was the worst thing that to happen to this team.

Marvin is the best coach the Bengals has had or ever will.
