We really don't know what was going on in the inside. For all we know, he hated and clashed with Marrone too. Either way, Marrone screwed him over. Business is business though.
I'm pulling for Hackett to get Jax job. It's the assistant coaches who were really shafted by DM. Who knows, maybe he is a decent OC.
Plus, you're never going to get a job if you don't interview for one. Dark horses or underdogs get hired all the time in the NFL. Crazy things happen. Him pulling out just shows how much of a loser he is.
This may be a good sign:

Well, at least we know we have a chance. Time to open the pocketbook Terry.
Why would we care about turnover ratio, they had Geno Smith and I'm pretty sure Rex isn't bringing him along. It's not accurate to judge a team's defense based on turnover ratio.
Aren't coaches salaries guaranteed unless they themselves quit (except for the unmentionable one)? I highly doubt someone would walk away from that much money (unless compromising photographs were involved).
Not playing devil's advocate here, but I keep hearing players love to play for him. Where's this coming from? Didn't his locker room basically quit on him this past season? Didn't they go on an epic losing streak?
Umm, multiple players cared and they publicly said so. Are you living under a rock? Their private thoughts are probably much worse too. If my boss did that, a person I depend on to advance my career, I'd also be furious.
