The dreaded Marvin Lewis won 8 of em, and the guy who'd been the face of the franchise was injured and basically checked out that year. Shane Steichen has done a respectable job this year. He lost his starting QB months ago, and is about to deliver a beating to our boys soon enough.
I agree. I was just trying to point out how we look at those two seasons with completely different lenses. Actually thinking about it that season and this season have some similarities. We were 5-4 when Green went down and 5-5 when Dalton went down (although 5-6 after the game ended). But it was totally unacceptable for Marvin to only win one more game. Yet if Taylor fails to win any its just what happens when you lose your starter. Just funny the two different lenses.
