There is obviously some set level as to when you fire a coach which I am unaware of. I am trying to educate myself. I want to know where that point lies with Ryan with the Jets. cowher went what 13 years before winning a Super Bowl?? Should the Steelers have waited that long??

Why is it so hard to answer a very simple question? As Jets fan, how long do you want to keep Ryan should he fail to win a Super Bowl....obviously if that happens it changes everything, but I'm just asking a very simple question, how long do you keep him if he doesn't do that?

You guys have proven that you are way, way, way, way smarter than me. I find it odd you can't educate someone stupid,l or if not stupid, someone who needs educated. It's a really simple question, that I think has a hard unsolvable answer. You guys have obviously solved it as it is unanimously time to fire Lewis. I am the singular person on this board who is not convinced it is absolutely time. You should know how long to give Ryan.
Obviously, there was a big difference with Cowher and even Ryan for that matter. Ryan won his first playoff game ironically it was against Marvin Lewis. Cowher won multiple playoffs games, division titles and made a superbowl in those 13 years.

Who set the bar of success at superbowl? Heck, Marty Schott has never been to a superbowl and i think he's great.

8 years and zero playoff wins and only two trips to the playoffs. Ryan surpassed that in his first year. I think Cowher did that by his second. As a matter of fact, I can't think of ANY coach that has been 8 years on the same team without a playoff win with no previous success.

If he goes the next three seasons without any playoff wins, they might chase him. That run last year bought him a lot of capital.

Ryan, one season, two playoff wins. Marvin, 8 seasons, zero playoff wins. What am I missing here?
