Total wins vs teams that made playoffs 12 of 32

I feel that Marvin deserves a lot of credit for attaining even these slightly above average results while handicapped by the worst owner in the league, but even I felt he should have been fired after last season.
But just because I felt he should have been fired I am not going to let people criticize him for things that are not true.
I've said many times over the years that Marvin deserves a ton of credit for bringing this organization out of the dark ages and putting together rosters that could contend. I think he's been a decent regular season coach for the most part, all things considered. However, I also thinks it's been demonstrated that he has very obvious limitations that hamper him like big stage preparation and player discipline, among other things.
