Look at where The Bengals were with Paul Brown alive in 1990. Then look at how the non football lawyer, I repeat lawyer, Mike Brown ruined this franchise. ...I think the rebuilding job Coach Lewis has done from 2003 on and having a Mike Brown team even in the play-offs this much is Great Coaching.

Nowhere would 22 and 26 consecutive years of accomplishing zero in the playoffs be tolerated.
The way the NFL and MLB are set up, teams luck into playoff success all the time, even once a decade.
The amount of ineptitude it takes to go 20+ years without a playoff win, for both Franchises, is truly amazing
The Bengals may very well hit 30 years, and the Reds are years away too.
Cincy Pro sports are a joke - The players melt in the spotlight and choke time after time after time.
Marvin Lewis is a huge piece of the tolerated ineptitude. He should been fired 5 years ago.
How bad were the Bengals in 2002 before Lewis hired in 2003 ? People at work with tickets couldn't sell them. They said people at stadium couldn't give their tickets away, and certainly not sell or scalp them...People at work no longer wanting to go, tried to give me free Bengals tickets and parking pass but I refused....In 2002 I watched Bengals in bed, often going to sleep. A game at Tennessee and a game with Jets were two of the most boring NFL games ever played in the history of NFL. No way I was driving to Cincinnati to watch the Mike Brown suxs 2002 Bengals. My word, City Council and lawyers filed a law suit against Mike Brown over new stadium and lousy team not worth the tax payer money....People forget how god awful bad it was before Coach Lewis turned this franchise around, but Mike Brown is still cheap as owner and GM and almost no scouts. Mike Brown sux's. ..I liked Paul Brown, not Mike Brown.
