Pro Football Weekly: Marvin Lewis Is A Lame Duck And Has Lost The Locker Room

Honestly hoping to get rammed by the Jets, I don’t want to see Marvin’s contract “expire”. Dude deserves to be fired.

I attended the game & watched a crowd go numb. People couldn’t even boo, they were so fed up. It is sad to see a stadium full of fans with no hope, not just for this season but for the future of this team. Any changes short of MB selling the team are superficial. I will stay loyal to my team & their colors along with all true fans but I cannot have nor display any loyality for a man or organization that cares nothing for the fans and the pride of a city that deserves a winner!

Whoever replaces him, I’m afraid he’ll fit one of the three following types:

1. Lane Kiffin-esque. MB brings in a young, not-quite-ready assistant coach, as MB doesn’t want anyone to be able to challenge him. Bringing in someone without clout accomplishes that nicely.

2. Brat-esque. MB promotes a yes-man within the organization. Alexander might fit this, as well.

3. Bill Parcells-esque. As with Jerry Jones and Parcells, MB may actually be desperate enough to bring in a Name, but he still won’t give up control, which will lead to the Name leaving in short order.

Option #1 Re-do Marvins contract and keep him out of the obvious lame duck status.

Option #2 Let the contract expire and get another – perhaps better coach – if only because he is different

Option #3 Let the contract expire and after putting the team in an almost impossible position rehire Lewis anyway and making us suffer for absolutely no reason. If Marvin sees a future here – this is a distinct possibility. Same OC, same HC, same DC same position coaches. No changes – no improvement – no future for talented players who if they are smart will take the first buss out of town as soon as they can.

What really bothers me the most after 20 years of frustration is the arrogance of the head office. The come out talking like they are geniuses and on top of everything when all of the evidence is to the contrary. MB and Katie were both born with silver spoons in their mouths, their only accomplishments being graduating with advanced degrees in a shielded environment where their education was their only concern knowing full well that their futures were secured at birth. They have never had to worry about being good at anything. They actually believe that they deserve thru their efforts what they have. This is typical of the “empty suit” people who have never had to worry about failure.

I have more respect for crack addicts than I do for people who have everything given to them and in the face of failure continue to walk around with an air of empty arrogance. You see it in Mike B and you can see it in Katie as well. I cannot think of anyone less deserving of what they have than those two. You would think their track record of failure would humble them. If they had an ounce of real quality it would. If they lost everything today they would live the rest of their lives in the gutter as they have never had to build anything on their own. It is just sad to watch. The only people who would call them sir are people they pay to do it.
