Those 5 teams (who comprise the AFC SB representatives for the past 13 years) and Marvin's record against them (including playoffs):
Ravens (16-10)
Steelers (8-21)
Colts (2-6)
Broncos (2-7)

Ouch. What a brutal and telling stat. With how the schedule softens up, I could see 9-7 out of this bunch, but it's clear that they're still pretenders as usual. Plus they now have significant problems to address this off-season. Including 4/5ths of the oline and the secondary.
Not to mention we have problems in the coaching staff. Paul Alexander needs fired yesterday, Zampese is looking like the weak hire most of us thought he was, Marv is Marv, etc etc.
I hate to say it, but the end is nigh for this group. Yet another wasted core of talented players. Time for reboot 3.0?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
