I just have trouble imagining what Marvin can be doing that can kill the spirit of a whole team all these times in a row.   Sooner or later, wouldn't a team of professionals just ignore the coach and go out there and go balls to the wall in spite of him.  When does the sick of this shit human spirit kick in with this franchise?

I don't put it on any one player.  I put it on each and every one.  Why can't they arrive at enough is enough?  It just defies logic.

I'm not sure what Marvin does that causes the team to fail every January, but I just can't view 6 similar losses as a coincidence. If I had to guess on why there is so much failure in January, here would be some of my guesses:

- Marv is too conservative - offense/defense play way too vanilla (and I'm not one of those guys that always says Marv is too conservative)
- Marv/the OC abandon the run too early
- Marvin teams always seem to lack fire (teams often take on the identity of their HC)

It also seems like this team has been drafting players who are quiet nice guys. Think Leon, AJ, Dalton, Whit, Zeitler, Gio, Geno, Dunlap, MJ, MLJ, etc etc. This entire squad is loaded with guys who fit that "quiet nice guy" mold. Then as soon as a player like Jeremy Hill opens his mouth, he gets scolded publicly by the OC. 

So IMO, scheme is partly to blame, and perhaps they aren't drafting enough fiery leader types. Or maybe the atmosphere within the organization isn't conducive to fiery leadership.
