That said, his ultra-conservatism, not having us prepared for big games, and not injecting youth into the lineup when he should is what irks me.

Well...I think Marvin's conservative style COULD WORK...if the organization actually invested in Centers and Guards.
We can't run the ball...so taking your foot off the pedal and running the ball fails.
But, our QB throws int's under pressure too...so they run the ball to avoid interceptions.
It's a vicious cycle...
Having a good interior of the offensive line would largely correct it. We haven't had an above average Center in over a decade. Actually for most of that time we've had one of the worst Centers in the NFL.
