Yup, I was going to say. Not too many people look better after 15 years. Let alone 15 years of a time-demanding job.
Also agreed on the eyes. Lol

I've been speaking out of frustration with Marv. I'm ready to move on, but I will miss him in a lot of ways, and he did provide some good Bengals memories...especially in the early days (IMO). I am genuinely sad that he will leave without a playoff win. I wanted it as much for him as for myself. It would've completed his legacy here.

Saving this post for when the offseason rolls around and there's an awkward Mike and Marv press conference to announce he'll be back.

Are you like my long lost twin or something? We agree on stuff FAR too much that it is literally disturbing me.

Front Geunt is going to be more of the same.

Paulie G doesn't deserve to be HC after his Defense gave up the most rushing yards of any team this season.
Damn talented Defense he has to work with too. All of our coach's contracts are up.
Expecting an outside hire just like Marv was.

Marvin was an outside hire. Why wouldn't the next guy be?

Because the 90s!!
But, seriously, I think the reason so many think the next HC won't be an outside hire is because the last few coordinator changes have just been promotions from guys already here.
