I get that he probably doesn't want to leave his TV gig nor come to work for Mike Brown and I can understand the reasons why some don't want him anywhere near us, but I think he's the perfect antithesis to Merv and would easily get us over the hump.

Yeah I think Marvin has never learned to play to each player's strengths, instead wants to play his game his way and tries to find players that fit that. Also doesn't adjust gameplan really for opponents in my mind, why it's so easy for teams to seemingly dominate us, we only have one hand to show. Whereas the Bellicheat adjusts, one game we might see Brady only throw 15 times.

The ball has got to get in John Ross' hands more than 1 target, what's his purpose. Hill doesn't like running outside (statistically), Mixon is used to shotgun and swing passes. Do what they are good at.
