So you have a lot of idiots on your side. At this point, after the failure of Bodine, Fisher, and Ogbuehi, I would have no problem with moving on from Alexander, but Alexander got a lot of hate before he deserved it. These boards are famous for perpetuating myths. Remember all of years of "Whitworth needs to move to Guard because he can't handle Tackle"? I dont need anyone on my side to say Alexander isnt good. I do remember that the argument was that Whitworth couldnt handle the speed DEs and that he wasnt as good as Levi in that regard and that maybe moving him to G to get a guy that could handle the faster DEs might not be a bad idea. I love Whit and think he is one hell of a T, but you cant ignore that throught his career he has had trouble against the faster guy. That said I would kill to still have him here.

The only downside to Brown is the drop in concession sales. Concessions are franchised out to Aramark (something). Brown/Bengals already paid before the first bottle of overpriced beer is sold. They may get a small percentage but the big concession bucks come from the franchise contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 It won't happen for a while, obviously, but I hope one day Whit is the head coach here. I think he has all the makings of a great one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saphead Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 It's past noon on Black Monday and the longer this drags on the better the chance of Marvin returning is. No news is bad news. I am physically sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most teams in the Bengals situation would have just mailed it in. I don't think it saved his job here with the Bengals, but it greatly improved his chances of getting another job of some sort with another NFL team. They had personal pride and future paydays to play for. Something, ironically, Marvin uses to “motivate” them with on the regular. I mean, I hear what you’re saying, but my point is that at this point, that is not enough. And, it really isn’t much at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No news is bad news. I am physically sick. Agreed. If he was going to be fired he would be out of here. "Injuries", "things beyond his control", "winningest coach", "playoff appearances" blah blah blah. The game WAS classic Marvin. Poor use of time outs and clock management. Allowed beaten team to come back in the second half after they scored right before halftime ala Pittsburgh. Played terrible second half. The only thing that won the game was Dennard's interception and return, something you can't coach. Marv just stood there on the sidelines the whole game looking miserable. I don't think he even knew there was a game going on, he just wanted to get out of the cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|High School Harry| Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Well, if Marv stays [vomit] it would be good to see Gunther go to Oakland and Jack Del Rio come here as DC now that Vance Joseph is staying in Denver. Smooth transition if Marv does leave ... soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
