Conservative game planning and schemes possibly (probably?) limited all our offensive player's chances at having "big throws", "big catches" and "big runs". Marvin is a proven choker. Possibly the choking-est coach in the history of sports.
Until I see Dalton (and others) play under a different HC in those situations, I refuse to say "well Marvin was the choking-est coach ever, but the players should've overcame that". Seems silly to me. Either you think Marv was shitty in those situations and hurt the players chances, or you pin it on the players. Saying "both" seems like a cop out....at least until these players have a chance to prove themselves without that anchor around their necks.
What i'm saying is, Dalton was on the field, and he missed 2 throws on that last drive. One of them (the 2nd one) AJ actually caught, but it was kind of a circus catch at the goal line and he was out of bounds.
Dalton was the only one that had the power to make or miss those throws. It had nothing to do with Marv, Mike or anyone else in the world at that moment. Dalton missed them all on his own.
