Quote:Marrone hasn't developed the OL into a unit that can be relied upon to be effective and consistent.  How is he the savior for this team when Gus eventually gets the boot?

 

No doubt, he'd be the interim head coach if the dismissal happens mid-season, but I don't see him as a viable long-term option.

 

Not to be someone who can't let go of the past, but I've spoken to some inside the organization who have indicated that Tom Coughlin would be a viable option to replace Gus.  The team is well aware that he feels like he's got more good coaching left in him, and from what I understand, they agree, and are not terribly concerned about the age.  It would be interesting to see if that actually comes to fruition.

 

What we saw yesterday SHOULD trigger the end of the Bradley era.  It won't happen this week, but if the team continues to look this bad through the bye, he'll be done.  There's no way the team can carry him beyond that and hope to keep the fans.
