How is all of this not a disaster for the Buffalo Bills?
Because we'll most likely end up with a coach that's better than Doug Marrone.
-
Doug Marrone didn't make this team better. Doug Whaley did. Marrone isn't responsible for bringing in the personnel from winning teams(Corey Graham, Brandon Spikes) and that's what changed the culture.
Screw Doug Marrone.
-
Do people really think NFL franchises are going to refuse to consider minority coaching candidates unless they're expressly required to interview at least one? It's a stupid rule.
-
Stay classy my ass. If he steps foot in that stadium again he should be booed and taunted the entire game.
-
He probably knows he'll be torn to pieces if he steps in front of a Buffalo Podium again.
-
Hopefully it's when there's snow so we can pelt him with snowballs.
-
"Marrone sucks" or "Traitor" chants all game I'd imagine.
-
Pretty sure the league would investigate you if you placed all your star players on IR and were obviously tanking on purpose.
-
As a fan sometime you force yourself to like players or coaches because you want them to succeed. This was the case for myself and Marrone. I supported him and defended him, but now that he's not on the team anymore I can see that he was pretty underwhelming.
-
I'm savoring the thought of him landing on the Jets. I will literally go to every Jets v. Bills home game just to boo him and possibly throw snowballs at him for the rest of his tenure there.
-
I'm asking the question, not stating it as a fact or even an opinion. But right now, here is what we know:
Marrone chose to walk away and pocket some cash instead of working for Pegula.
Polian talked to Pegula about serving as a consultant, and said "no thank you" - again, all he was going to do was consult, and something turned him off about the situation.
Pat Lafontaine stormed out of the Sabres' organization because something about the management structure drove him mad.
Right now, there does not appear to have been any coherent plan in place for the beginning of the NFL offseason - Pegula's first as team owner. He's had several months to figure out what he wanted to do, yet it seems like he's in reactive mode to the events unfolding in front of him. Maybe there's a plan and we're not privy to it, I really don't know. But I'm starting to wonder if this guy knows how to run a sports franchise. Something about him seems to be radioactive.
Again, I'm just asking the question. I guess we'll find out soon enough.
He hasn't even owned the team for 3 months......

"Well obviously, you know, I obviously had to think about what's best for my family, ok. And obviously my time here was special, ok, but I obviously had to see what else was out there. My decision isn't a reflection of my feelings for this franchise or the reason, ok? Buffalo will obviously hold a special place in my heart always."
-
When I heard he jumped ship and bailed on his contract.
-
I don't think they'll fire Marrone but who knows.
Is that this Monday? If not what's the date?
-
If this were the Bills of a few years ago I'd expect them to sign him to a huge 6 year deal this offseason.
-
I'm glad he's not on this team anymore. I absolutely hate his attitude about pretty much everything. From sitting in a sea of players in suits at the Etsies texting on his phone in a hoodie, to turning down an invite to the White house to meet the President because he "wanted to hang out at home on the couch" that day, to his most recent interview:
-
I think they knew well enough to stay out of things while a season was underway, particularly since the Bills showed improvement. Now that the season is effectively over, I would imagine we'll soon find out what changes are coming (i.e., consultant, etc.).
This. Plus I'd imagine a purchase that big and complex takes some settling into. There are so many moving parts on both the football side and the business side that you can't just rush in there and start changing things around until you have your bearings.
-
Could happen since NE is unlikely to dress Brady.
I didn't think Bellichick rested players for the playoffs. There was just an article quoting Tom Brady saying they're going to try to play the best Sunday of football they've ever played in week 17.
-
I consider the season a failure not because we missed the playoffs but because we blew a really good chance at having our first winning record in over a decade. All we had to do is beat a 2-12 team. Now we'd have to beat 12-3 team away.
-
I think Wood and Glenn are still good linemen. I just think this year's Oline stunk so bad it dragged them both down and made them seem to have regressed. If we upgrade the guards this offseason with GOOD players I think they'll be back to form in 2015.
-
See: signature
-
Yeah he had a pretty good year last year too. He made more "highlight reel" catches this season I think though.
-
Robert Woods and Chris Hogan are the only guys I thought played decent/better this year. Everyone else has been terrible.
-
So let me get this straight.... your plan to build a winning team is to sit back and suck for another season, hope that Rivers doesn't sign an extension, and then in 2016 offer him the highest salary ever in hopes of luring him to Buffalo?
No. My plan is to stick with who we have in 2015 and then sign one of the QBs from a much better FA pool in 2016 than the FA pool in 2015.
