Whatever. You've been decidedly anti-Marrone, and you're rationalizing things to pedantically nitpick.
 
This board talks out of both sides of their mouth. Some posters complain out when he coaches conservatively, calling it "not to lose." When he plays aggressively, we get posts complaining that he should have been more conservative.
 
In the interest of transparency, I thought that he could have used the playclock a little better at the beginning of the final drive. How's that for a nitpick? But we ran effectively, kept the ball inbounds, and moved the chains several times converting several big third down plays to keep the drive alive. I saw him run the play clock all the way down toward the end and use a timeout to maximize burning the clock. I'd say he did a pretty good job managing the clock without needing a "math coach." You either trust your players or you don't. Marrone put the game in his players' hands and they won the game.
 
Edit: chip, I think you are right. Sorry that I incorrectly attributed where you were coming from to another poster, BostonOrange--my bad.  I got you two mixed up, and I'm a bit weary of his schtick.
