I never said LaFell was elite. All I did was respond to this post
By saying that LaFell was better than Ross, Malone, and Core.
The point is that Lafell was incredibly average at best, but a more realistic assessment would be to say he was below average given how often this team had to throw the ball and how he would be single-covered because of Green on the other side. He was targeted plenty of times despite his inability to generate any separation.
Now, with that being said, my problem was sticking with the status quo that WASN'T WORKING instead of giving Ross, Core, and Malone more chances. In fairness, Malone did get some chances after the season was all but over. That video, while it may have been edited and may have been the wrong thing to do, showed Ross making plays that Lafell would never be able to make. To keep him on the bench because of the fumble, and one route that he gave up on IS petty, stupid, and stubborn in such a way that it makes Marvin look like an idiot.
That about this, again, since you ignored it last time: Marv fired the OC and blamed the players. But he refused to give OTHER players a chance. That includes running backs. wide receivers, and linemen. How does that demand accountability to the players on the field?
