John Cocktosten Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Man, there is going to be some serious crow eating going on in the future.
K D Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 He was highly recommended by Sean Payton and Bill Parcells. Does everyone love him now? Bill Cowher highly recommends Chain Gailey
buffaloaggie Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 He was highly recommended by Sean Payton and Bill Parcells. Does everyone love him now? Chan Gailey was recommended by Bill Cowher. How'd that work out for the Bills?
cmjoyce113 Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 From watching Cuse games I hope he brings his defensive coordinator Scott Shafer... Very high speed blitz heavy defense. The biggest concern should be Special Teams. Syracuse sucked in that phase of the game. That is my only concern.
K D Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 but Lovie Smith has a positive reputation with NFL players, and could have attracted some free agents here. Lovie = #Credibility!!! Marrone has none
Hater Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Everyone is not going to be happy with this choice, I wanted Chip Kelly but we went in a different direction & at least it was a bottom feeder like Hue Jackson, I say give him a chance
Corp000085 Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 From watching Cuse games I hope he brings his defensive coordinator Scott Shafer... Very high speed blitz heavy defense. The biggest concern should be Special Teams. Syracuse sucked in that phase of the game. That is my only concern. Marv Levy was a special teams coach on George Allen's staff with the redskins. Just saying...
toddgurley Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 What a dumb f*cjing move-am done with this franchise!!!!! 25-25 a SU and we hire him-so stupid. Goodbye all
Jim in Anchorage Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Its on NFL.com and appears to fit the Bills criteria: someone that does not demand much money and will not be allowed to have much control. Brandon must think he can market this guy, but at best, he seems like a poor man's Chip Kelly. Unfortunately it does look real. Well I hope all the good god not Lovie Smith types are happy. instead of a proven winning NFL coach we get a 25-25 bush league collage guy. And you're right it's a save money move.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 These are some of the coaches Marrone worked with in the NFL: 2002 Jets: Coached under Herm Edwards, coached with Paul Hackett OC 2003 Jets: same 2004 Jets: same, Donnie Henderson DC 2005 Jets: same, Mike Heimerdinger OC 2006 Saints: Coached under Sean Payton DC Gary Gibbs, Dennis Allen DL 2007 Saints: same 2008 Saints: same
The Beautiful East Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 From watching Cuse games I hope he brings his defensive coordinator Scott Shafer... Very high speed blitz heavy defense. The biggest concern should be Special Teams. Syracuse sucked in that phase of the game. That is my only concern. I totally agree. If he could bring Shafer, we'd be dandy on defense.
BigdaddyinOrlando Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 I like the hire. I think coming from the college ranks that he would be able to get the respect from the players because he played and coached in the nfl as apposed to no nfl exp. such as chip kelly. Not saying he will be better but will win the locker room over easier, though I am hoping he is better. The curious part is who are gonna be the cordinators. Did they get the feel that some of the interviewees might be willing to coach or does marrone have a some good ones lined up already, maybe some guys from the saints?
Joaquin1119 Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 I dont know if i want to "billieve" anymore. I'm going wait until he start hiring his coaching staff then I would say something about this coach.
cmjoyce113 Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 I'm wondering if Buffalo might try to get Pete Carmichael from New Orleans to be the offensive coordinator? Would be a lateral move but could call his own plays here whereas Payton called them.
toddgurley Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 So we hired Doug Marrone. Are you happy? And do you agree? My opinion-so stupid. Have a guy like lovie smith who wants the job with a proven track record and you hire Marrone? Dropped the ball again ugh! No season tickets for this guy
San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) These are some of the coaches Marrone worked with in the NFL: 2002 Jets: Coached under Herm Edwards, coached with Paul Hackett OC 2003 Jets: same 2004 Jets: same, Donnie Henderson DC 2005 Jets: same, Mike Heimerdinger OC 2006 Saints: Coached under Sean Payton DC Gary Gibbs, Dennis Allen DL 2007 Saints: same 2008 Saints: same Also Marrone played for 2 seasons in the NFL.

26CornerBlitz Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 @AlbertBreer Woke up to a text on the Doug Marrone news. Good hire for the Bills. Innovative offensive mind, built program, won at a tough place to do so Looking fwd to seeing who his DC will be.
