Many hypocrites will give Dalton a pass for not advancing towards the playoffs, but will center on Marvin who has been here longer. Well there is someone who has been longer here than Marvin and that is Mike Brown all heat should go there. Look at Mike Brown's history record with the Bengals which is under .500. Look how many years the Bengals missed the playoffs, look how many cheap ass coaches they signed. This team will be pitiful again when Marvin leaves.
I'd be one of those "hypocrites".
Here's the thing: nothing can be done about Mike Brown. He's here until he's dead. There is some hope (however small) that Marvin can be replaced. Also...Mike Brown isn't what's causing this team to soil themselves over and over (and over) again in the same situations. That'd be Marv. We've had several teams that were talented enough to get a playoff BYE and make a SB run. We obviously didn't. At that point, you can't blame Mike. He managed to get the talent together.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
