When Marvin Lewis took over as Head Coach of the Cincinnati Bengals, his first job was to change the culture. The organization had been downtrodden for over a decade and was the laughing-stock of the league.
What Lewis has accomplished since he took over has been remarkable., when you look at where they were. The team started winning games and soon after a division title. I can admit– as a fan myself–that 2005 was a dream season. At the time, winning the AFC North felt like winning a Super Bowl.
For a long time, I felt like maybe that has been part of the problem.
