As to your second paragraph; I wouldn't say that he's "magically turned any corners", as much as he's now fully buying into what the coaches are teaching. Yeah, I realize that our coaches don't appear to be the engineers of world beaters at a glance, but now that they have players that they have chosen to fit what they want to present on the field, things do appear to be looking up.
As for the last paragraph, the Marvin reference seems a bit unrelated and out of tune with the spirit of what we're discussing. This team has been rebuilt, and now they are showing what they are capable of. This team, just like any team, has added a slew of new faces in the past two years, and it takes time for them to all gel together as a team. Marvin was pretty much the polar opposite to what we have witnessed develop here lately.
We'll see, I suppose. I am just not loving the idea of keeping together the secondary on the 29th ranked pass defense.
