I'd love to see him go out on top, or for pete's sake...just get that damn playoff monkey off his back. He'll have a great legacy in Cincy if he could get that out of the way. If he doesn't, he'll be remembered as much for frustration as success.
Btw, I tend to put more blame at the coach's feet than the players. Especially when it's been multiple sets of players and the same result.
Which is why i have zero faith he will ever win a single playoff game never mind going to the SB. Some people can only do so much in their careers, his stops at the playoffs. Its a whole new level from the regular season and he has the stats to prove he can't prepare/execute it for the playoffs.
As much as you hope this year is going to be different....it won't.
