Marv should take a note from Saban

But an all-time legendary coach that Saban is, pulled a very unconventional move in the biggest game of the year by putting in a freshman QB who had hardly played all season. Saban figured if no change is made, then we are going to lose. A change at qb may not work, but at least it is better than definitely not working. Well it worked, and they are national champs yet again.

Maybe Marvin watched that game, and just maybe he can see that sometimes a change at a position during the game, let alone during the week, is better than what is not working.

I get your point. It's not always about the QB, though, but just making a significant change to try to spark the team. However, in doing so, Merv would have to recognize that it IS possible to make a significant change DURING the game.
