Steelers Fan Coach/Exec Hatin' Round 1 Results: No. 3 Marvin Lewis vs No. 6 Bruce Arians

In a tad closer of a vote than we've had in the search for the coach/exec that Steeler Nation has the most animosity for, we had two former Steeler coaches battle it out.

In a duke-out of former Steelers coaches that now lead their own squads, Cincinnati's Marvin Lewis received the most votes over Arizona's Bruce Arians. Lewis' leadership of a band of bullies that have, at times, intentionally injured Pittsburgh players was the chief reason that he received the majority of the votes. Arians proved to be a formidable opponent. The Cards coach received votes for the wear-and-tear on Ben Roethlisberger due to the amount of sacks allowed due to his offensive schemes and his perceived arrogance.

Here are the results.

No. 3 Marvin Lewis - 72% (207 Votes)

No. 6 Bruce Arians - 28% (79 Votes)

Lewis moves on to face Bill Belichick in the semifinals. Check back to BTSC for more results and matchups.
