But how many games can you really point to that the Bengals lost because of coaching decisions? For example I hear a lot of people complain about how Marvin is too conservative with a lead, yet he has never lost a game because he was too conservative with a lead.
If you look at the won lost record of NFL coaches almost every one of them goes up and down based on how much talent they have. It is not like good coaches forget how to coach for a year or two and then start remembering again.
Working under Mike Brown has been a big handicap fro Marvin. His record would have been much better if he had an owner that was mroe willing to bring in some talent when needed.
