I am not a Marv defender at all, but I doubt this. The 8-20 record vs the steelers hurt, and the 0-7 post season hurt the most, but he's 16-10 vs ratbirds, 18-8 vs brownies...so it not some "he's a total shit coach" lets just let him stay here type deal. I can bet you more than a few teams would take our recent streak than not. I can see why they've kept giving him "prove-it" deals in hope he figures it out, but if this season goes keeps going South, this will be the ultimate test of what Mike Brown is really made of. The Colts, Chargers, Houston, Pitt last year, I can come to the realization that MB is fine with that level of success. Fine. Nothing at all I can do about that. But after going - say - 6-9-1 and missing the post-season? This will say if he's all out of chances to keep proving it.

The Panthers came into the league after the last Bengals playoff win, yet have been to two Super Bowls and have multiple playoff wins. The Steelers and Packers are two of the most historic and successful organizations in the league. Maybe, possibly the Cardinals, but even they have playoff wins and Super Bowl appearances in the recent past. Has the AFC North historically been one of the toughest divisions in football or not over the last 16 years? All time results: Panthers - 2-2-1 Tied Packers- 7-5 Bengals Cardinals - 6-5 Bengals Steelers- 59-35 -duh

Even if the changes you ask for are done we're stilll left with Mike Brown and company to drive this further into the ground. I will continue to participate on this message site, but will no longer watch any Bengal's games until Marvin Lewis is sent packing along with all the assistant coaches. Bring in a big name, no nonsense, HC and allow him to hire his own assistants and Mikey keep the **** out of the way. :paul:

Can we cut out all this silly middle school drama? If you are a Bengal fan you are going to want to watch the games no matter who is coaching. And your "not watching" the games has absolutely zero effect on who coaches the team. It is like saying you will stop eating bacon until you get to pick the President of the United States.

I hear ya OP
I've been a fan 40+ years, and in all honesty if Marvin Lewis is here again next season I'm not sure I can continue. I've never felt like this not even in the 90's.

I don't know what comparing the entire AFC North to other divisions has to do with comparing the Bengals' "down year" to that of the aforementioned teams. The Bengals' history, when compared to any of the four with the possible exception of the Cardinals, is sad. Just for fun, here are the all time playoff records for the teams you mentioned. Pittsburgh: 34-23, eight Super Bowl appearances, and six wins. Green Bray: 32-21, five Super Bowl appearances, and four wins. Carolina: 9-7, two Super Bowl appearances, zero wins. Arizona: 7-9, one Super Bowl appearance, zero wins. Cincinnati: 5-14, two Super Bowl appearances, zero wins. As I said, comparing these franchises is sad.

Feel the pain of OP as well.
It becomes taxing. The water tastes funny when you're far from your home, yet it's only the thirsty that hunger to roam. Roam the Jungle !

If a child makes it to the school bus everyday but fails to catch the bus because he is too busy giggling and not paying attention, does that make him successful? Let's say he does make it to school every year but fails to graduate because he is giggling too much to hide his fear of ineptitude. Does that make him successful? No. Sound like anyone you know?

These threads again?
If you made it through the 90s I'm sure you will be back next year. If not??? #byefelicia

Do only about a third of all students make it to the bus stop every day? Typical logic of a Marvin hater. |
