That's possible. I personally have to just think that Mike Brown has a different assessment of "success" than we do. For all we know Mike's family might want him to make real NFL moves, but he's father and father knows best and he's going to keep the money rolling in and secure his family and friends lifestyle even if it's against their wishes.
Or maybe he just looks at all the NFL teams that have expensive practice facilities and GMs and don't win the SB. Either way, the guy is 82 and I've never met anyone over 40, much less over 80, who likes to make changes and/or think that he's wrong or should be questioned.

I'm with ya. The same thing that made me pretty sure we were going to lose to the Steelers when we were up 17-0 and embarrassing them is the same thing that makes me assume Marvin will be back until he's legitimately gone. Anything before that is just speculation. I had more of a feeling Marvin would be back BEFORE this game, though. We have made excuses all year that we should be way better than we were and those excuses could be used to keep Marvin since that's what Mike almost certainly wants. This game was just so terrible that it seems clear Marvin could walk away.
But until it actually happens...
