We have Henry, we aren't a one-dimensional team that has trouble passing more than 10 yards downfield.
Also, if Odom isn't taken out for the year on an illegal block (that wasn't called), he probably would've had the sack record and/or the best season by a DE in team history. That would've made our already great defense, even better.
EDIT* We also faced the hottest team in the NFL (playoff or otherwise), while we easily the coldest playoff team in the NFL, that Wildcard game.
Losing Henry was the game changer. Also had a ton of injuries that year and the roster wasn't that talented to start with.
In all honesty its probably Marvin's best coaching job while he was here. You could also argue the 14 season.
