cher·ry-pick
ˈCHerēˌpik/
verb
gerund or present participle: cherry-picking
1.
selectively choose (the most beneficial items) from what is available.

Using Marv's record over the last 6 years is cherry picking. It's taking his best regular season stretch, and ignoring his previous 8 years as well as his playoff record - which is why most folks "just want to be mad".

Bringing up 1000 yard rushers as a defense for PA is asinine. That's a very archaic way of judging rushing success. We could have a 1000 yard rusher and be among the least efficient and productive rush offenses in the league. That's actually happened many times over the last decade.

I think it's very thoughtful of Mike to actually take time to write back disgruntled fans himself. He doesn't seem like a bad person at all. That doesn't make his thought process any less frustrating though. I get that you probably agree with him - at the very least on Marv. Maybe on Paul too.

Did he somehow forget the years before his 5 year run? Why was that not taken into consideration? Is he taking all the bad years, throwing them out the window, and saying "see, he's a top 6 coach if you take all the bad years away". Because that's totally logical. 


It's insulting and really shows his thought process when making these decisions, and it's rather pathetic.

He is not cherry picking he is taking the half decade plus in its entirety. I could see "cherry picking" if he tried to eliminate a couple years during that stretch, due to injury, ect.... or pointed to some good things Marvin did early in his Bengal career.  He didn't do that. he also didn't just bring up 1,000 yard rushers as a defense for PA, he also mentioned keeping the QB clean. What of those were cheery picked?

ANYBODY type me up a response that would have appeased them, while retaining Marvin and Alexander. WTS, I thin PA is well past his prime and they should have parted ways with Marvin at the end of this season.
