    We had a quick turnaround too.

    Worst team in the league two years in a row to a winning record in 2016.

    I think the biggest difference was the run game. At this point in MM8 career he is just not good enough to carry a team without the run. He is not Wilson.

    I get that Josh McDaniels failed in his first run as a HC and there are questions about him considering he has the goats Belichick and Brady around him, but...

    Wouldn't you at least want to give it a try? That's one of the best-run teams in NFL history and McDaniels has to get at least some credit. It doesn't bother me at all that McDaniels flamed out in Denver; I think it might even have been good for him to see that he tried to bite off more than he could chew and likely learned from it.

    Man, I would swap Mularkey for McDaniels in a heartbeat.

    You keep bringing up Manning's struggles. In his third season, he threw for 4400 yards, had 33 tds, and 15 ints. Marcus shouldn't be this bad in his third season. There is cause for concern.

    Which in itself sucks, because it was suppose to be the opposite. Mariota was suppose to be a gunslinger that could outrun defenders when needed, while Wilson was suppose to be a game manager..

    In 2015 Manning was among the worst QBs in the league, even getting benched for Brock Osweiler while throwing 5/20 for 35 yards and 4 INT in one game.

    He finished the year with career lows in passing yards 2249 (and per game at 224.9), TD with 9 (that's right, a SB winning QB with less than 10 TD passes) and completes the magic VY ratio with 17 INT.

    No other SB QB has ever been that awful yet alone win it. At that point, his HoF career was long over.

    Yes, having a great D helps. So as for Tennessee, why not build a great D? Clearly a less than marginal QB can win the big one with one of those.
    It doesn't work the other way around. Plenty of HoF QB seasons have come and gone not winning the big one without some sort of D.

    Mariota is really only just now entering his 3rd season worth of games. He also spent his entire offseason rehabbing instead of honing his fundamentals.

    His season definitely deserves criticism though. But, I’m not terribly worried about.

    Manning's offense was rolling, to be fair.
