I'm with ya there 100%. Other than ol' Merv, that's one of the only coaches that's been along for the whole ride.

I really don't know if Marvin shook himself out of the grasp of restrictions and had more going on than we knew.  But if he did it did not have to do with his philosophy of how you win on game day.  So I'm with you on that.

I have always thought Marvin's strength was putting the right people together, as well as helping talented players to get out of their own way.   Hopefully that will be enough this year.   I'm counting on the fact that he has put the right group together.

There's a reason all the talking heads have written us off.    But I have this feeling that we should not sleep on the Bengals this year.   I think he gets us to the playoffs again.

What happens then?   Let's hope his team pulls us through and he stays out of his own way. :andy:

Part of the reason it's so frustrating is that I have no big problems with Marv outside of that. I think his level of regular season success has been acceptable at least. He'd probably be considered a hero to Bengals fans everywhere, if he just had a few playoff wins on the resume. A deep playoff run or two.

Its actually quite funny/interesting:

The Brits say, "eh," SIGNIFICANTLY more than Canadians do; I rarely here it here week to week, while the 2 weeks of my life I've spent in the UK, I heard it dozens of times a day, not to mention the members of the Who say it a lot during their banter, in the Kids Are Alright.

Newfoundlanders (1.4% of the population of Canada) are the only people that say it consistently and they are the ones spoofed and parodied, with the, "eh," things.

Misrepresentation I tells ya!

Indeed she is

For Canadians with similar names, I'll throw out Emmanuelle Chriqui

Would've gotten a better pic, but most are blocked/unviewable at work.

And they protest by doing nice things and cleaning the house.

Would be very happy to see Marvin in Bengals front office.
