Mixon should consider himself lucky to be used so little.. keeping him healthy.

That's actually a fair point....you may be right my man.

Marvin supposedly made a list of demands after the 2010 season, including a practice facility.

7 years later...crickets.

I disagree. If you can't win in the trenches, you certainly shouldn't be doing trick plays. Let alone a flea flicker, a long developing play. Andy has found success in the west coast offense because of the quick passes going north to south. As seen with coaching from Jackson/Gruden. A flea flicker might've worked if A, we ran the ball more and B, we had the line to do it. Andy can barely with stand coming from Shotgun...let alone a running back taking a hand off, stopping, turning tossing it and then Andy seeking someone down field.

That's a recipe for disaster.

I think Marvin was counting on the 49ers actually being interested in him for the coaching job. They quickly dismissed him and Marvin was left with nothing. He's a football coach so we know he has a big ego. He has zero desire to coach college. It was Bengals or bust in terms of being a head coach. He tucked his tail and came back.
