Because I still don't see how you are supporting your argument.
Fred like a couple posters have tried to explain to you - it's not black and white, it's in color. You can't place everything in this world in neat little boxes and give them a label. Everything is not just pure stats and numbers in easily definable charts.
I'm not sure a single person has said ZT's culture change is 100% the reason we went to the Super Bowl. But I can guarantee you many (myself included) believe ZT's culture change has effected how this team plays. How they feel about their teammates, care about winning as a group, however you want to put it ?
Can you win in the NFL with no talent or close to none ? NO But it takes more than just talent more often than not.
You want to argue Marvin Lewis had less talent, free agents, so on. I could care less about arguing about ML, that ship has sailed for me. But ML was by no means devoid of talent during his 16 year run.
