Sherlock Holmes Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 21 hours ago, I am the egg man said: Thurman was gouging that great defense averaging 9 yards a carry, yet only got 15 carries. Why ? They should have run him more. Also, Norwood was more comfortable kicking long field goals from the other side of the field. They should have gotten the ball over to that side of the field. That's coaching. I am the Walrus...

I always thought it fell on the coach, like the blame and beating McDermott gets for things that go wrong. I don't disagree with that. Of course, McD isn't as lovable, warm and fuzzy as old Marv seems to be to so many. Marv went to 4 Superbowls and has an excellent win percentage. And what's more, ALL the players love him and give him tons of credit. I don't imagine any of the players on that team would allow you or anyone else to claim that Marv wasn't instrumental to the team's success. He's a hall of fame coach. Those hating on Marv Levy are just so strange. Edited June 28, 2019 by MJS 1

Amazing how many thin skins view a dissenting opinion as hating. Just think that team was so good that any average head coach would have done the same as Levy. 1

He wasn't an average coach, he was a Hall of Fame coach. That doesn't make me thin skinned. I'm not offended, I am expressing my opinion.

MacGyver Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 Levy didn't get the job done, doesn't belong on that list IMO. 1
