Kirby Jackson Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I came across this list on twitter: http://on.nfl.com/17lXCZZ Marrone is at 28. Thoughts?
The Big Cat Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Looks like they ranked all the newbies (except Dennis Allen) as last. Of the newbies he ranked behind Trestman and Kelly...whatever.
The Wiz Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) These rankings look to be the makings of someone who had nothing else to write about. I have an idea! I'll compare every coach that has been in the league for the past 10 years to the 6 others guys that were just hired. BRILLIANT! I could care less where they rank Marrone or anyone for that matter. Except Bellichek, he shouldn't be number 1. Take your pick of the Harbaugh's as #1. Edited June 4, 2013 by The Wiz
Kirby Jackson Posted June 4, 2013 Author Posted June 4, 2013 It is certainly tough to judge the new guys but there are a few current head coaches (ie Munchak, Rivera and Garrett off the top of my head) that haven't proven to be too good. I would rather have the unknown in any these rookie coaches than 1 of those guys.
eball Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Idiotic. Not because of where Marrone is ranked, but because the very notion of "ranking" guys who have never coached in the NFL is insane.
DanInUticaTampa Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 would make more sense if they did this in november or decemeber.
ganesh Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Looks like they ranked all the newbies (except Dennis Allen) as last. Of the newbies he ranked behind Trestman and Kelly...whatever. Which is ok. Kelly comes from a pretty successful Oregon program and Trestman won the cup across the Falls and has built some good/great offense in the NFL in the past.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 I came across this list on twitter: http://on.nfl.com/17lXCZZ Marrone is at 28. Thoughts? moving up to number one next year!
Mr. WEO Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 These rankings look to be the makings of someone who had nothing else to write about. I have an idea! I'll compare every coach that has been in the league for the past 10 years to the 6 others guys that were just hired. BRILLIANT! Yeah!! How can they rank Marrone yet when he hasn't yet coached a single game in the NFL?? Now pardon me as I head on over to the "what great past NFL coach does Marrone remind you of?" thread.....
brucethomas34 Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 I came across this list on twitter: http://on.nfl.com/17lXCZZ Marrone is at 28. Thoughts? He will be #1 one day and he and Nix will both have statues outside the ralph.
Just in Atlanta Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Total BS. Typical anti Buffalo media bias. He deserves at least a 27.
Nanker Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 He will be #1 one day and he and Nix will both have statues outside the ralph. And they'll rename the SB hardware "The Maronne Trophy".
BisonMan Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Even taking out the bone-headedness of including rookies, or anybody that hasn't coached for more than 3 years, the list is still screwed up. How can the two coaches that won more SuperBowls in the last 10 years be behind the Harbaughs (1 SB win) and Belichick (1 SB win). Coughlin and Tomlin should be #1 and #2 just on that. Neither had HOF QBs like Belichick and, likely, Payton. And, sorry Bills fans, both played in tougher divisions than the Pats. The Pats consistenly have the easiest schedule in the because of that. Belichick hasn't won a SB since 2004. My top 5 with guys with more than 5 years at the helm: #1 Mike Tomlin (2 SB wins from a tough division) #2 Tom Coughlin (ditto) #3 John Harbaugh (1 SB and consistently good record in a tough division) #4 John Fox (turned two teams around and even was able to win with Tebow at QB) #5 Mike Smith (5 straight winning seasons that brought the Falcons back from the dead in a tough division) Payton's suspension alone takes him off my list.
BuffaloBill Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 I came across this list on twitter: http://on.nfl.com/17lXCZZ Marrone is at 28. Thoughts? How can this be relevant for anyone without NFL head coaching experience? It's not worth anything. The more meaningful analysis must come at the end of the season. Following the Bills Super Bowl win Marrone should top the list.
tennesseeboy Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 He hasn't coached a game yet, so it would make sense he would start near the bottom. Doesn't mean much. I would consider him successful if he brings this team to an 8 win season, and I'll bet most power ranking would rank him in the top 15 if he did that. You don't get a big leg up on the rankings until you show something warranting it. Don't worry, the guy has to get a chance to bring his team onto the field and show what he's got.
Coach Tuesday Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 What is the difference between a "power ranking" and an ordinary "ranking"?
uncle flap Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 What is the difference between a "power ranking" and an ordinary "ranking"? Power rankings are subjective and "ordinary" rankings are objective.
You herd it hear last Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 I came across this list on twitter: http://on.nfl.com/17lXCZZ Marrone is at 28. Thoughts? Golly, I thought I got excited about lists. You take it to a whole new level. sorry...I can't help myself
PromoTheRobot Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Great. I knew hiring Marrone was a mistake. Maybe we can fire him quick and snap up Lovie Smith? PTR
Kirby Jackson Posted June 5, 2013 Author Posted June 5, 2013 Golly, I thought I got excited about lists. You take it to a whole new level. sorry...I can't help myself It's June. I try to post any national stories that have anything to do with the Bills. I can only spend so much time talking about who will start at QB week 1. We are so far away from that
