Why do you refuse to compare Marvin to ALL the coaches instead of just the top three?

Because Marvin Lewis is the 2nd longest tenured head coach.

In the top 6 longest tenured head coaches, Marvin Lewis is the ONLY coach not to have won a Super Bowl.

In the top 12 longest tenured head coaches, Marvin Lewis is the one of two head coaches not to have won a playoff game and not to have appeared in a championship game (Jeff Fisher is the other one)

Then you look at guys like Rex Ryan, Andy Reid, Jim Caldwell, John Fox, and Gary Kubiak. Guys that are on new teams, but yet have ALL made it to at least the Championship game.

Andy Reid in 2008
Jim Caldwell in 2009
John Fox in 2014
Rex Ryan in 2010
And obviously Kubiak won the Super Bowl last year

Marvin Lewis is one of 16 head coaches that never went to a Championship game. But the other 15 head coaches have only the head coaches of their team since 2013 and onward.
11 of which got their first head coaching position in the past 3 years.

So, there. Compared him to all the other head coaches instead of the top 3.
