There's still too many players around when he first got hired, who remember all of the losing that took place before then, who were there last year when things turned around.

Now might the locker room have lost faith in Bortles?  That's entirely possible.

But Marrone?

I'm not buying that yet.

You are one of the few OG posters here who has a clue, and I agree this doesnt prove he has lost the locker room

However, the product on the field and the things coming from Wash about the defense proves he has, and what ramsey alluded to after the game shows he has. This season quite literally blew up

Its over, and we HAVE to rebuild yet again because we have NO QB

Now the season effectively being over is a different issue than whether Marrone has lost the locker room.

I believe the injuries are insurmountable at this stage.  As I said in a different thread, any team with a good pass rusher can shut this entire offense down and have an adverse impact on the defense.  Barring a trade that gets us a viable LT, or the completely unforeseen level of proficiency by Wells in a very short period of time, nothing will change.  Even if Fournette returns to 100% health and stays there and the guy we just got from the Browns is a stud for us, our running game will still struggle because teams will know even more to stack the box.

But that dynamic is different than Marrone losing the team.
