The same player talent you constantly harp on as being awful, pathetic, the worst front 7 to ever line up on a field, etc? Sometimes I can't figure you out Wist.
The player talent in the front seven was horrid in 2011-12, and TT did next to nothing to fix the problem. Since then he has made a committment to improve the front seven, and I've said that I like most of those players. My complaint has been that in the acquisition of front seven talent TT has not paid any mind to whether they fit a 3-4 or not, and predictably dunderdummy went straight out and misused the talent TT gave him and put up equally predictable abysmal numbers.
Last year was the first year since our SB that dunderdummy actually used the front seven even close to the way they should have been used - and the results were much better. 2013 dunderdummy was a disaster almost the entire year in terms of using the personnel correctly - only in the playoff game against the Niners did he play them correctly.
We had the overall talent to win the last 2 SB's IMO - we didn't win those SB's primarily b/c of dunderdummy, but also b/c of MM in the Seattle game. That said, MM is responsible for the coaching staff, and dunderdummy is still there... so that's on him too.
I don't care what the stats say about MM's challenge percentage - sometimes the challenge is a no-brainer, i.e. an obviously horrible call on the field, and we all go to the fridge knowing full-well that it will be overturned; but for shear WTF challenges, MM is an artist... for those, you go to the fridge thinking "... WTF is he thinking"??
