Marv's record compared to other coaches

[bengals67]

I have written this elsewhere but will repeat.

Sam Wyche is probably the second best coach in team history or maybe third after Paul Brown and Forrest Greg.

Why wasn't Mike patient with Sam who had an outstanding record compared to Marv?

I think the answer is all about control and deferring to Mike versus a coach who was a type A workaholic who demanded excellence and innovation and fought for his ideals and high standards when different or in conflict with Mike.

Same was a great head coach and we have not had one since.

If we go back in history and keep Sam, I promise we would have had one or more Super Bowl trophies.
