uticaclub Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Any chance we bring him back? Obviously Whaley brought him in to be a red zone target and Marrone held a grudge from college. He seemed to like it here, maybe a new coaching staff would love to use him
beerme1 Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Sure why not? Ho much does he want? he's a Whaley guy for sure as we traded a pick for him so why not? but at what $
simpleman Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I really would like to hear the story behind Mike Williams. If it truely was Marrone's ego and a grudge I would like to see the new front office approach him and say we are sorry how Marrone treated you and we want to give you another chance to prove yourself here if you are interested. Of course if it really was not a Marrone issue and Mike just didn't have it anymore, then I would leave it alone.
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I want to know as well. Williams had a history of production before Marrone and suddenly you have Chris Hogan of all people beating him out.
billsfan1959 Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I want to know as well. Williams had a history of production before Marrone and suddenly you have Chris Hogan of all people beating him out. Not just Williams. There were a number of offensive players who had a history of decent production at their respective positions before Marrone and regressed. How many offensive players can you name that actually improved under Marrone? I find it very difficult to believe that Williams was not good enough to see the field...particularly in the red zone
BuffaloFan68 Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Would really like to see Mike Williams in a Bills uniform again.
K D Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 He will want too much money. But the question is will he get it? He's a #4 receiver in all likelihood but he wants to be paid like a #1 or #2. Maybe if he sits out on the open market for a long time he might lower his expectations but I'm sure some desperate team will give him more $ than he is worth

If Marone was half of a coach he would have at least tried to work WIlliams in a red zone package but didn't . I hope the jets get him as a HC they deserve it !! Never did like the hire & am glad he's gone , this team is loaded with talent & all's it needs is a competent coach that knows how to use it . If Marones little buddy was half the coordinator Schwartz is & we had half what the D was out of the O this year we would have been in the play offs .. Thanks Marone !

Is there really a demand for caveman? Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he clear waivers? I'm also in the camp that would like to know what really happened with Mike Williams.
Kelly the Dog Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Now that more stuff has come out about the cancerous mole known as Doug Marrone, I think it really could be as simple as MWilliams statements about adjustments after the Houston game. Marrone was the Gatekeeper and the Grudgekeeper.
Kellyto83TD Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I want to know as well. Williams had a history of production before Marrone and suddenly you have Chris Hogan of all people beating him out. Correction, outside of his rookie year he has NOT produced, hence Tampa willing to trade him for just a 6th rounder or so. If he was really worth a damn no way they part ways with him. Now I agree Marrone had something to do with this BS

If he was really worth a damn no way they part ways with him. Now I agree Marrone had something to do with this BS Correction; He had a damn good second year too (9 TD's and almost 1000 yards) with stats almost on par with his rookie campaign.
Tampa Bob Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Correction; He had a damn good second year too (9 TD's and almost 1000 yards) with stats almost on par with his rookie campaign. Correct. And he missed most of his 3rd year due to a hammy. Most teams don't often dish out 40 million after a good rookie year. Tampa must of thought highly of him. He was traded because they got a new coach who doesn't like off field issues.
Tampa Bob Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 There is no chance that Mike has lost a step. His only injuries are a hammy and a minor stabbing. He is probably still in his mid-20s. His benching was 100% due to marrone's childish/girly grudge. I would like to see him back along with spiller if they can work out some incentive based contract with him (not likely). I am thinking marrone held a grudge against spiller too because of some minor mistake he made...maybe get didn't smile at him once or something.

Big Mike also made some big catches on 3rd down vs the Bears that helped us win that gm. It seems like Marrone holds grudges to the point of hurting his own team. Who in there right mind would hire a coach like this?

Beef Jerky Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I dont even want to hear Mike Williams name ever talked about again.
Bob in STL Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I prefer we let this go. Williams history is not the greatest either. Lesson learned is to bring in players the new coach wants.
