It's a legit statistic that 23 DIFFERENT TEAMS have been to a Super Bowl since we last won a playoff game. 23 Pat!
And guess what? We have largely the same management team running things.
No kidding we have the same management team in place, but you seem to be completely ignoring the fact that the main reason we struggle on the field is piss poor coaching. You don't seek to understand how big of an "addition by subtraction" moving on from Marv may be.
It's no secret this team sucks and has sucked. You may see it mostly as a management issue, but I see it mostly as a gameday coaching issue. This historically bad management team put together a very talented roster that made the playoffs 5 years in a row, despite a horrible record against in-conference rivals and Primetime games. Who else has made the playoffs 5 years in a row? It's not like we've been short on talent, we've been short on clutch coaching when the going gets tough.
This may sound crazy, but honestly... If I could only part ways with one of the two, I'd part ways with Marvin Lewis before the duo of Mike Brown/Duke Tobin (I can't believe I said that either
)
