K8prisoner Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Well , I don't think we have worry about anyone else quitting and expecting a good outcome .. Actually surprised he was hired at all .. Don't mess with buffalo .. Probably more like 32 owners saying don't embarrass any of them with a power play with no success to leverage ..
YoloinOhio Posted January 20, 2015 Author Posted January 20, 2015 Maybe they should hire Hackett as the OC.. i think it's going to be Gase
Bills Fan in MD Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Why not? Since the 2010 season ended, the Jags have gone 5-11, 2-14, 4-12, and 3-13. If there's no real improvement next year, do they really have any other choice other than to blow it all up and clean house (again)? I suppose the team could have another 3 or 4 win season, with the offensive line's performance as a massive exception, but that's not exactly a scenario that plays out very often (other than maybe Dallas in the early 2000s). Again, anything is possible, but I can't imagine this is where he thought he would be a month ago.
RyanC883 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 If he becomes FL resident he will pay no state tax on $4M that the Bills owe him, correct? I don't think that is true. I'm sure NYS would come after it because he earned it for his "work" in NYS. If the Jags play poorly enough for Bradley to be fired, they aren't going internally for their next HC. If Bradley is fired mid-season, he may get a shot to take over as interim HC, but he'll have to do a heck of a lot to get the gig full time. I really don't see how this works out for him in any way unless the Jags somehow make a miraculous turnaround on the offensive side of the ball and it turns him into a hot commodity for a future job. Not sure those are good odds. . . Well, he is St. Doug, didn't you hear? I hope we embarrass their O-line in London.

Apparently his agent has been starting up all sorts of rumors, leaking untruths to members of the media, trying to generate some interesting in Marrone, all to no avail. So Marrone takes a OL coach - with a somewhat more exalted title - just to land a job and stay in the NFL. But the position he takes is probably just a temp job because the coaching staff is probably going to get fired at the end of the season.

One would think he will be unemployed at this time next year. At least he will know the values of a good tarp.
YoloinOhio Posted January 20, 2015 Author Posted January 20, 2015 Does the AHS title allow him to control all content on jaguars.com?

Doug has not been a part of any of those failing season. They may "clean house" but if Doug conducts himself well, I could see him as a front-runner for the job. Sorta like how 3rd year QB's start getting rookies in the wings to take over if they screw up.
GA BILLS FAN Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Marrone will have to pay N.Y. state income tax on the Bills $4M buyout because the amount was earned in NY. The tax laws require you to pay tax based on where you earn the money.
Cynical Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 I think If Marrone is just fired and doesnt work for Jags he has to pay NY tax on that. NY source income. @SportsTaxMan: coaches are subject to the #Jocktax I am not an accountant, but I will throw my $.02 in: If the coach and buyout clause are subject to the "jock tax", then the money is subject to NY income tax. However, it could be possible the buyout clause is not considered a salary or wage (its reported as a 1099 income), and if DM gets paid this year (2015), then it's quite possible it is NOT subject to NY income tax, assuming of course, he lives in a state that is not NY.
keepthefaith Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Hmmm @RyInCBus: Lulz. RT @spotrac: Per @SportsTaxMan, a move to Jacksonville (FL), means Doug Marrones $4M buyout from the #Bills will now be tax free. Wrong, and that $4 mil is about $2 mil in his pocket. Taxes eat the rest. Still a good chunk of dough though.
John from Riverside Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 In the end....I wish you well Doug.....it is a shame that it has come to this for you
Max997 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 I was really hoping this was a home game just to hear the Just another Guy chants!
Mango Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 I took a swing by the Jags board, not one of the registered TBD commentors, but I am astonished at how happy they are with the hire. Really odd. I get being OK with it, I get being neutral, and try rose colored glasses, but they are all really happy about it with no negativity. I credit it to they don't know much about football. Makes me appreciate this place more, even if I don't agree with all of you.
YoloinOhio Posted January 20, 2015 Author Posted January 20, 2015 Mike Francesa on Marrone: "that would be like me going to Peoria to do mid-day"

Makes me appreciate this place more, even if I don't agree with all of you. I think they see someone who was just a Head Coach now being able to focus all that skill onto just the OL. It was a "name" hire. Thats all they see. No one in Jacksonville follows the NFL closely enough to know all of Marrone's problems.
