Stupid decision

The issue with this argument will always be Marvin's prime time record.  There is really nothing Mikey can do that can cause this team to underperform to the degree it has in primetime games.  Similarly, unless Mikey has some kind of strange "No halftime adjustments" policy, that's all on Giggles and his staff.  This team being forced to waste timeouts on offense has always seemed to be an issue throughout his tenure.  Could Marvin have done more if Mikey was more aggressive in FA?  Maybe, but he has numerous complete playoff implosions on his resume.  Could a better coach have gotten more of his rosters?  Most certainly.

All valid points.  But, the fact remains that Marvin Lewis is by far the winningest coach in Bengals history.  He's got his faults, no doubt.  Should he have been gone years ago? Absolutely.  Do I think that he tries his best to do his job?  No doubt.  Is it Mike Brown's fault that Marvin is still the HC, after all these years?  You bet your ass it is!
