You're terrible at debating.
I did not compare him to Marvin Lewis. As a separate entity I detailed Cowher's 7th. 8th and 9th seasons. I never compared how Cowher coaches a game to how Lewis coaches a game. Cowher had 6 good but non-championship years, much better than Noll's last 6 years. Lewis took the team to 2 division titles in 8 years after zero for the franchise the previous 12. Cowher improved the Steelers, then had 3 struggling years....the calm franchise stuck with him and it paid off. I can compare and say Lewis did improve the Bengal franchise then struggled this year. I can say that perhaps based on only this year it may be hasty to decide to fire him. I look at last year, they had the defending Super Bowl champions and the two participants in the AFC championship game in their division and they swept them and won the division. That my friend is a great coaching job...period, end of story.

I can compare how franchises behave and what to do. AFter what the Steelers had done championship wise with Noll, it would have made sense to fire a guy like Cowher after 3 terrible years, they didn't.

No, noone on this board can compete with me for presenting facts and logic to any debate. You come with stuff like look how the refs are cheating the Boston Celtics.
