Mangini's done a far better coaching job this season than Lewis has. The other problem with Lewis is that not only has he not won a playoff game, his performance is getting worse as his tenure progresses. After going 42-38 his first five years, he's 18-28-1 his last three. And those unbelievable losses against Tampa and New Orleans are on him. Just because he made the Bengals mediocre for a few years rather than terrible doesn't mean he gets the job forever.
