Times other franchises would've considered firing Marv:
2006: Lost 3 straight at the end to lose a playoff spot and finish 8-8
2007: 2-6 start, finished 7-9. Take your pick where to fire him
2008: 4-11-1, 0-4 start with Palmer, 3 straight non-winning seasons
2010: Team with SB aspirations finished 4-12 with 10 straight losses
2013: Team that is 8-0 At home gets demolished in home playoff game. 0-5 playoff record. Had a perfect replacement in either Jay or Zimmer.
2015: Epic playoff meltdown, 0-7 playoff record
2016-2018: 3 straight losing seasons full of embarrassment.
That's at least 9 different times a normal franchise would've considered firing him.
