Criticize everything he does? C'mon, Fred. I've told you a million times to stop exaggerating.
My biggest knocks on Marv from taking the team to the next level are simple:
1.) He rarely goes with the younger player if there is a veteran in that spot as well. AJ Green and Dalton had no one to push out, so stop using that as an example. Burfict is the best player on the defense (IMHO) and he was on the bench until an injury forced him on the field. Gio started more than Hill and got more opportunities early in Hill's rookie season while everyone seems to use Hill's rookie season as a time where he played a rookie, and let's face it: it is a little different with RBs.
2.) He is horrible at clock management. 15 years and still no semblance of a two minute offense.
3.) Too conservative. If Marv somehow found himself with a 21 point lead against pitt, like Jax had in the playoffs, he would take his foot off the gas, when Jax ended up needing 45 points to win. I hate that part the most about Marv. Brady says they don't even look at the scoreboard, they try to score every drive. You simply can't say that about Marv.
