It’s people taking limited information, guess work and some fanhood bias and throwing it together. Bust and injuries happen too. Marvin has a track record, why would outsiders predict against that track record? If someone is picking the Bengals to win the AFCN, they are a Bengals fan.

You make a goo dpoint except that Merv's track record is one of winning at least 8 games in the regular season. In 15 seasons, Merv has led the Bengals to 8 or more wins in 10 of them.  In 2 of the 5 that he didn't, he had 7 wins. So, Merv, in 12 of his 15 seasons, has had 7 or more wins. If prognosticators are looking at his track record, then they need to recognize that Merv usually has the Bengals around .500 if not higher.
