Marvin could win the big one - "fans" will still consider him a big game bust, giggles, etc.
Andy could win the big one - "fans" will still present the same negatives they always do.
Mike could win the big one - idiots will still decry the stadium deal, cheapness, etc.
Thus, IMO, the legacy question is irrelevant. Having said that, 2015 could be a future defining season for many on this team including Marvin Lewis. That becomes the ultimate question.
I like this game, let me try!
Marvin could have the most embarrassing primetime and postseason point spread (especially 2nd half of games) in NFL history - "fans" will still tell us to not sleep on Marvin and tell us how this is our year EVERY single year.
Andy could have one of the worst career postseason passer ratings in NFL history - "fans" will still deflect blame to others.
Mike could go a quarter of a century without a playoff win - idiots will still defend every move the team makes.
Herp derp, durrrrrrrr.
