DC Greg Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 He wasn't good enough for the NFL. He should head back to some small ball college where he'll still make great money to be a mediocre coach at that level. Guy will do just fine. Hella happy to see him off the Bills sideline... err, out of the booth.
HOUSE Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I feel sorry for Doug Marrone  He has a big head and no brains
DJasper Probincrux III Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 If lane kiffin can keep getting good jobs i think Hackett will be ok too.
Mr. WEO Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I don't feel bad for him. He wasn't ready and he probably knew it--but he wasn't going to turn down the Bills job. Â He busted out, but hey, we now have Spagnuolo's and April's offspring on the coaching staff. Â He's now offically a retread--so he will get another job in the NFL, because that's how they mange their business.
bmur66 Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 How many people can put NFL OC on their resume?
Bangarang Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 He got a raw deal having to coach under Marrone. On the flip side, this opportunity probably opened some doors for him in the NFL.
Beef Jerky Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 The fact that he was able to do better then Gailey with less is amazing. Especially with Marrone as a HC, Gailey didn't have to worry about anything b.c he was HC.
\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I don't have any sympathy for Hackett. He made the choice to leave the band just before they started to achieve a widespread following. Who could have known that Collins, Rutherford and Banks would become so popular? Â Â

Webster Guy Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 the only thing good i've ever heard anyone say about Hackett is that he's got a lot of enthusiasm. Â he and marrone took Cuse to a .500 team with a very good college qb, which isn't really much of an accomplishment. Â he lacked inventiveness and game calling skills (from my limited viewpoint on my couch). Â Â get the guy into a college scenario where his skill of being enthusiastic can help recruit good high school players. he'll be more rewarded in a job like that by developing young players in the sport he loves. the NFL isn't where he belongs anyway. i'd go play for the guy if i was a high school standout.
1st&ten Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Comes with the territory, part of the profession. He'll rebound. Even if he returns to college coaching & remains there, not such a bad life.
bobobonators Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Why would i feel bad about NH? Hes the type of person who has gotten to where he is in life bc of his name. Â Let him go earn a living that matches his true talent.
bbb Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I definitely feel sorry for him and hope he lands a good job soon. Â Hopefully, with another team in the AFC East. Â
mabden Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 He screwed up by hitching his career to Malone. Â Just like Flounder did in Animal House. He trusted his frat brothers. Â My advice is to drink heavily. Trust me I'm in pre med.
Kelly the Dog Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Since he probably got the job as an OC in the NFL because of his name and his dad - I don't see Harvey Johnson Junior getting any coordinator jobs in his 30s - he could very likely get work for a couple years on the college level, or as a position coach, and then re-start his OC career in his 40s like most OC's. I don't really feel sorry for him. I think he needs to choose his friends better.
bladiebla Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 He seemed like a very enjoyable person so sure on a personal level I defo feel for him, from a fan and result perspective, no not at all.
TSOL Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Id imagine that Hacketts and Marrones personal relationship is pretty strained by all that went down here. I dont feel bad for Nate, i wouldnt be surprised if he got another crack at coaching on an NFL team.
Best Player Available Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I do have sympathy. he should have been a MBA or something.................
