Lurker Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Harvey Johnson. Man, those were disfunctional days... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvey_Johnson_(coach) "It was speculated that Johnson's love of thoroughbred horse racing, a passion he shared with owner Ralph Wilson, allowed him to stay on the Bills payroll despite his poor performance in coaching..."
Cynical Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 (edited) Marrone and Mularkey are pretty much the same guy.. I believe they both went 9-7 and then bailed. I don't believe Mularkey ever got another head coaching gig and I hope the same happens to Marrone Yeah, but different circumstances. When Levy took over the GM spot, Malarkey knew he wasn't Marv's guy. Short of winning the SB, he knew he was gone when the season ended. Also, Malarkey did get another HC gig. He was the HC of the Jaguars for one year. It will be a long time before Marrone gets another shot, if ever. Edited April 24, 2015 by Cynical
Buftex Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Just for pure football reasons, for me, it has to be Dick Jauron. Good guy for sure, but I think the Jauron era was the most miserable era of Bills football for me. My cognizant life as a Bills fan starts in 1972... I realize, there were much worse Bills teams in my lifetime as a fan, but none was as consistently dull and joyless as Jaurons teams. He epitomized the concept of playing the game not to lose, rather than playing to win. Just terrible to watch more often than not. And what is particularly galling is that I think the Jauron era teams had more talent than the train wreck teams of Stephenson and Bullough. Put me down for DJ!
keepthefaith Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Hank Bullough Without a doubt. The younger fans around here should read "By A Nose" by Fred Smerlas. It has some nice tributes to Hank.
Dragonborn10 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Marrone is the worst. He completely mismanaged the most importnat postion on the team.
vincec Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Most inept: Kay Stephenson Most annoying: Doug Marrone
Solomon Grundy Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Marrone for the way he left I particularly didn't like his "power" play with Doug Whaley.
It's in My Blood Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 For me it's gotta be Marrone with Gregg a close second. Donahue was blown away by Greggo's binder, so he hired him over Marvin Lewis. SMH!
PlayoffsPlease Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Gailey sticking with George Edwards after year 1. And his self proclaimed offensive genius which was nothing more than getting away with borderline illegal picks. Terrible coach. Terrible hire. Terrible to retain him after the first year, terrible to retain him after the second year, and inconceivably terrible to waste a third year with him. For "continuities sake" For all the Marrone hate, he actually earned the only winning record for the Bills this century.

vorpma Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Hank Bullough, Harvey Johnson, Kay Stevenson... take your pick. You young whippersnappers don't know nothing about bad coaches. Jauron, Mullarky, Marrone, they ain't a scab on a bad coach's ass compared them jerks!
Chandler#81 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 c'mon it's MAROON by a mile, nobody walked out like him, when the entire organization and fan base is totally caught off guard you're an asshat. Plus he is obviously St Doug and all. Kay Stephenson and Hank Bullough are right up there with ineptness. Lou Saban says Hi! -twice
JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Stone-cold Dick Jauron, because of his "winning in the NFL is hard" acceptance of mediocrity. We were stuck in a 7-9 fornext loop. And Chan Gailey, for being the anti-Jauron in word but not in deed.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Kay Stephenson should be coach of the 80's decade for two 2-14 seasons that earned us Bruce, Jim and many others that led to the glory years. how tanking is done right Harvey Johnson. Man, those were disfunctional days... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvey_Johnson_(coach) "It was speculated that Johnson's love of thoroughbred horse racing, a passion he shared with owner Ralph Wilson, allowed him to stay on the Bills payroll despite his poor performance in coaching..." Wow! that is insane, thanks Ralph. For me it's gotta be Marrone with Gregg a close second. Donahue was blown away by Greggo's binder, so he hired him over Marvin Lewis. SMH! or John Fox
Mickey Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Harvey Johnson 2-23-1. The man was a legend, the patron saint of incompetence.

Ted William's frozen head Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 not to be a prisoner of the moment - but i truly believe marrone will go down as the Bills biggest assh*le coach. I t was well worth the $4 mil. to get his sorry ass out of town.
