If they can go into the bye week at .500 after the way this season started, it will be a big mental lift to this team. As you say, Marvin's teams don't historically do well coming out of the bye, and 3-6 says the season is over.
Let's be real, this team has not looked like a playoff team at all this year. Winning two in a row, going into the bye feeling good about themselves, would be huge.
