Marvin had two playoff berths in his first eight years (2005, 2009).
Then Marvin got the luxury of sticking around for the "reboot". Bye Carson Palmer and Chad Johnson, hello Andy Dalton and AJ Green.
This miraculously resulted in five straight playoff berths.
So in terms of progression over a span of years, Marvin did accomplish that to an extent. It's just not what the fans consider enough progression.
Now, Marvin has had one losing season after five straight playoff berths and likely on his way to a second losing season, to which he only ever did one other time (2007-2008).
Marvin's tenure was a welcome change from the 90's through 2002, but now his team's declining again and it's time for a changing of the guard.
Oh...the things Marvin has accomplished working under Mike Brown have been amazing. I still think Marvin wins a Super Bowl if he's coaching the Steelers by now.
