Remember that Marvin has been the only HC to put up a winning record under Mike Brown. All those before him failed.
Also remember that Taylor has no HC record at all.
Are we just hoping that Taylor will be better?
Are we hoping Taylor is better because, well, we really don't have a choice?
Of course it’s hope, Taylor hasn’t coached a game yet. There were some good coordinators under Marv, but there were also some terrible ones (Bresnahan) and some terrible position coaches (Haslett).
And for all the good stuff that Marv did, he still had a lot of weaknesses in his “game”, i.e. playoffs, prime time, clock management, in-game adjustments. Which all ended in 3 straight losing seasons.
