The team came close of going all the way twice in the last 13 years in my opinion, 2005 and 2015. Those two seasons were special in terms of talent and synergy for the Bengals. Ultimately the injury to Palmer ended the 2005 and the Meltdown with Jones/Burfict ended those runs.
Many blame Brown and Lewis 24-7 and I am personally ready to move on from those two as a fan. But I will say that those two seasons aforementioned, the Bengals were as talented as any team in the NFL. I still hate the Steelers for the injury on Palmer. I still blame Lewis, Burfict, Hill (for the fumble), and Jones for 2015.
This is a family owned business and Brown is the owner/GM. He will not fire himself. He just has to reach the point that he thinks he needs to move on as his age is approaching 84.
