Since losing to Pittsburgh in playoffs this team is 6-12-1. Our overall record since we beat Pittsburgh on Nov. 1st 2015 is 11-14-1. Four of those eleven wins have come against a Browns team who has won a grand total of 4 games during this time span. If we didn't have the luxury of playing them 4 times in this span I doubt we'd have 11 wins.

Basically speaking, besides the Miami anomaly, every half way decent team we've played since that 8-0 start to 2015, beats us !

It's way past time to face the glaring fact that this team is in a bad downward spiral and it's time to hit the reset button. The entire coaching staff needs to be gone, blow it up. This season is toast anyways. We badly need a reboot, a new culture, however you want to put it.

Of the say 14, 15, 16 games or so we've played against good teams in our last what amounts to 1 and 2/3 seasons we've won -

ONE game !

Also worth mentioning that at the time the Bengals played the Dolphins, they were a dumpster fire. They were nowhere near as good at that time compared to the end of that year.

At the end of the day, Marvin has not found (or lost) any way to motivate these players for an entire 60 minutes against a strong competitor.
