I gotta give you credit for the Spin you put on Marvin's quarterbacks versus the Bengal QBs of the 1990s to give ALL CREDIT to Marvin & ZERO credit to Mike as the GM possibly improving as a drafter of QBs in Marvin's era versus the 1990's.
Mike gave Marvin Carson & Andy
The 1990's Mike chose Akili & Klingler
Fred says this is NOT proof of a GM improvement between the two eras but instead that Akili & Klingler would have been just as successful as Carson & Andy had Marvin been their Head Coach.
That is World Class Spinning Fred and I Tip my Hat to ya, that was awesome Pro Marvin & Anti-Mike Spin.
I mean it. Awesome.
It is not spin. Both Klingler and Smith were higher rated prospects than Dalton.
Let me ask you which makes more sense.
1. Mike Brown sucks at drafting for exactly 12 years and then becomes great at the exact same time that he hires Marvin as head coach. Just an amazing coincidence.
2. Marvin is better at coaching and using the draft picks to win games.
12 years without a single winning season and losing over two thirds of his games, then magically he becomes a good owner at the exact same time he hires Marvin Lewis as head coach winning over half of his games and making the playoffs 7 times in 15 years.
You have to go through some serious mental gymnastics to believe that is just some random coincidence.
