No way. Santino was way too hotheaded and he would have waged an all out war on the Five Families, not just Solozzo and Tattaglia. Michael eliminated them through his intelligence and the mentoring he received from his father Vito. Interestingly, Marvin Lewis does have success in his growing coaching tree. Both Jay Gruden and Mike Zimmer have their teams in the playoffs in only their second seasons. Also, players Marvin drafts or signs have been nearly universally successful. This makes Marvin Lewis a terrific manager but as far as leadership goes, he is lacking.
