Marvin Lewis
He was named the 2009-2010 NFL Coach of the Year
In 2003, Marvin Lewis was hired as the head coach of the Cincinnati Bengals, a team that had been struggling for over a decade. At the time of his hiring, the Bengals had not experienced a winning season or a playoff appearance since 1990. Lewis quickly turned the franchise around, leading the team to its first division title in 15 years by his third season. Under his leadership, the Bengals became consistent postseason contenders, making seven playoff appearances and winning four division titles. From 2011 to 2015, the Bengals achieved a franchise-best streak of five consecutive playoff berths, solidifying Lewis's reputation as a coach capable of building a competitive team.
Despite his success in the regular season, Marvin Lewis's tenure with the Bengals was marred by a lack of postseason victories. Although he led the team to seven playoff appearances, the Bengals were unable to secure a single playoff win during his time as head coach. This inability to advance in the postseason became a significant talking point in discussions about his legacy. Nevertheless, Lewis remains the winningest coach in Bengals history, with 131 regular-season victories, and his contributions to the franchise are widely acknowledged. He was named NFL Coach of the Year in 2009, becoming the first Bengals coach to receive the honor since the legendary Paul Brown.
After stepping down as the Bengals' head coach in 2018, Marvin Lewis continued his coaching career, taking on various roles, including his current position as the assistant head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. His extensive experience and defensive expertise make him a valuable asset to any coaching staff. Lewis's impact on the game, particularly in transforming the Bengals from perennial underachievers to playoff contenders, has left an indelible mark on the NFL.
