Kind of what i expected and maybe there are a few fans that have a personal hatred for Marv cause of his personality
but that is not 90% or so of the people in this thread. It is his coaching that stands out or the lack there of. His half time
adjustments have been poor in big games. We were leading 10-7 against the Chargers in a Playoff game and we don't
score a single point in the 2nd half. Bad halftime adjustment.
This year against the Steelers and Broncos our two losses were bad halftime adjustments as well. The refs sure didn't
help against the Steelers but we should expect that by now.
Marvin puts together damn good teams and works well with players but his coaching leaves much to be desired.
As Shake says, 7 playoff games is plenty of evidence. I hope this changes this year and i think it might but so far how
can any of us have faith in Marv coaching us to a Playoff win? I can only hope the players become coaches themselves
for this to happen and with Dalton and Burfict this could happen. If it was all on Marvin Lewis i would have no faith.
Yeah, I mean, if we went by personality and community outreach, Marvin would be one of the GOATs. I really like the dude, but I'm tired of the mediocrity, flat performances, not looking prepared, and meltdowns.
