Where does the organization move from here. Does ownership do the unthinkable and fire Marvin Lewis? A lot of people may think no, but I think it will happen. Heres why.
Media around the NFL started mentioning it as the season started. This year we had the best roster since the mythical team from the 80s. It's going to be tragic to see that go to waste and a Free Agency period that is going to be devastating to the point that the team can only regress--even if slightly. Mike Brown only giving Marvin one year contracts arouses my suspicion as well. Why isn't he able to commit his unconditional love for Marvin for the long-run? If the front office though lewis was the answer, then surely he would've gotten a contract lasting longer for one year.
Also, say what you want about the guy. He has had 14 years. 14 years to win a playoff game. I think Stephen A Smith said it best when we lost to the Chargers.
But what do you guys think. If this team tragically goes one and down again, does anything change?
the team is set for set back next year with free agents... but if losing your QB whos on an MVP type season a few weeks before the playoffs(and 2 wins shy of a Bye week) doesnt bye you another year nothing will...
Really... Marvin took controll in 2011 and since then each year has been better than the last. They were patient and built things their way and we are seeing the results of that this year. or were until an unfortante injury momentarily derailed us.
This was his best year yet... would you really want to change now?
there could be change. Would it be the best for the Bengals? we wont ever know the answer to that either way.
