Burfict and Pacman's lack of self-discipline and Marvin Lewis' lack of control of his knuckleheads directly led to the Bengals' playoff loss last year. Marvin Lewis hasn't reigned in Burfict's on-field extracurricular activities or Pacman's off-field problems which have continued since before both signed with the team. Marvin Lewis himself is quoted as saying he can't change players. Plus he doesn't have the time to deal with discipline problems because it distracts from the amount of time spent coaching the other non-knuckleheads. So if Marvin Lewis says he doesn't have the ability or time to help players like Mixon, what makes you think Marvin Lewis can?
