That was Marvin Lewis’ downfall too.  He treated the postseason like it was something supernatural instead of just game planning and preparing for a normal game.

I’m not going to lie; I miss Marvin right now.  No, I don’t want him back but in hindsight I can appreciate all he did.  Marvin never lost to the Lions and, in fact, the Lions haven’t beaten the Bengals since 1992.

On the contrary, we've literally seen Marvin's speeches to the team going into playoff games. He often preached that they need to treat like any other game.

As for Taylor, I've not been given the impression he prepares differently for certain games vs others. I just think he's inconsistent as a playcaller. Some games/drives, the offense does really well, but then there are times it's just completely dull and predictable.
