For a board that loathes Philadelphia fans for the way McNabb was treated in Philly, I'm not seeing a whole lot of difference between Philly fans and those already beating up on Marrone on this board.  To see so many common-posters dump on Marrone so quickly is wildly disappointing.  It seems that so many have already lost any type of perspective on where this program was only a few years ago.  Am I disappointed with the way the game went on Saturday?  Absolutely.  This team still has a long way to go, and Marrone absolutely has a long way to go to improve, but I'll take the guy who bleeds orange over the guy who is going to use our program as a stepping stone any day, especially when he's less than 3 seasons into his tenure here.  There's just so much negative energy here that I can't understand;  at this point, I'm just thrilled to turn on the tv and not think we're going to get blown out week in and week out.  If in 3-5 years, we're still in the same place, then I'll jump on the "Is Marrone the guy?" train, but at this point, I'll let his recruits develop before I judge them; I'll let the guy develop as a head coach for a few years.  To expect a light switch to be flipped with the program that he inherited and 'Cuse be in a BCS bowl is simply unrealistic.
