I've been happy this year that Marvin hasn't OVERANALYZED clock management.
When we were driving for our final touchdown last week, I was stoked that we threw the TD to take the lead with 1:46 remaining. Old Marvin may have tried to ween that clock down and then score with as little time left on the clock, putting the pressure on OUR players instead of putting the pressure on Flacco and company.
In the past it seems like he is resistant to score quickly in situations like that.
You could make the case for running a few times and then throwing, but it gave me relief when we scored, as did the rest of the team i'm sure. If the Ravens scored to win the game on the last drive, I may be singing a different tune.
