It all falls on the owner

I do understand this. We can't fire Mikey Brown, so let's talk about things that might change.

However, I also have to ask myself, how much better would Dalton be if we had a front office that wanted a decent OL in front of him? How well would this team play in the playoffs if we had a coach who, well understood big game preparation? How long does this team have to be "just about over the hump", but never quite there, ever.

I'm not the biggest Dalton fan, but the more people point out his mistakes, while he's running from a rush that shouldn't be 3 yards deep before he can get his feet set, the more irritated I become with Mikey Brown.

I've gone from happy with Marvin to being discussed with Marvin, but then I remember that he has to deal with Mikey Brown and suddenly I feel for the guy. I still want him gone at the end of year, but I feel for the guy.
