Where is the praise for Marvin for inspiring his team to come from 15 points down in the 4th quarter with a backup QB? I haven't seen one person claim that. If we had won that game I guarantee no one would be talking about how Marvin was responsible for it. A lot of people here really have a double standard for success and failure. The time to kick Marvin out was after 2010, not now.
Praise for a comeback only comes if you win. It doesn't come if you only score 16 on the 30th ranked pass defense.
It's Marvin's fault to the degree that it'll always be a 0-7 coach's fault. Four different QBs have played under Marvin in the postseason and all of them have performed pretty much the same. If you go from 0-6 to 0-7, nobody is going to praise you for trying harder than you did previously. You're still a turd in that situation.
"Congrats, you're the sole heir for the title of worst coach in NFL postseason history. But you tried hard. Hurray, go you!"
