If Marvin Lewis fails to make the playoffs, maybe he'd get fired. If he finally wins one, then we have Marv locked up for another year where he'd probably get a lengthier contract. Losing in the playoffs isn't worthy of longer than a one year deal.
Just speculating though, obviously.
I would agree with you, but don't think there is any way Mike Brown pays someone the last year of their contract and doesn't make them work to the conclusion. If Marvin were in the final year of his contract, I could see him getting fired, but not with a year left on the table.
