My skills are amazing as I correctly predicted which one would be ahead; although all those listed fall under the "coaching" umbrella.
Of course like each year I think this will be the one we get over the hurdle and I consider the latest playoff loss as the only time we shot ourselves in the foot.
The Indy playoff loss was due to injuries. We got Rex Burkhead and Ryan Hewitt leading the receivers
The Charger loss was on 2 crucial Turnovers. (Gio and Andy fumbles)
The Texans games was just simply being too young in critical positions and one poorly thrown bomb
I know Marvin is an easy scapegoat but the problem is this team does not get treated as a first class organization by the owner. It's ran as a mom and pop organization.
I don't agree with all the excuses (other teams are young, other teams make up for a fumble or missed pass, other teams have injuries), but I do agree that the #1 overall problem is ownership. Problem is, that situation is hopeless because there is zero chance that the Brown family will ever relinquish control. There is however, a tiny sliver of hope that maybe someday a different coach will roam the sidelines and bring a different direction to this team.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
