Bangarang Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Marrone must have a great agent to be getting interviews and media buzz. I'd be shocked if he actually got hired to be a HC though.

YoloinOhio Posted January 9, 2016 Author Posted January 9, 2016 Jimmy Sexton's connections and media hype can't help Marrone once he gets in the room with an interviewing team. i saw one reporter (josina Anderson I believe) say that some teams interview coaches simply as a favor to the agent as they have players repped by same guy. Makes a ton of sense.
BuffaloFan68 Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 I just don't want Gase in Miami, I like them at the bottom of the division. I'm glad to see Quinn leave the Patriots.
YoloinOhio Posted January 9, 2016 Author Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) I just don't want Gase in Miami, I like them at the bottom of the division. I'm glad to see Quinn leave the Patriots. I have no idea how good of a HC Gase will be, but what makes him a great candidate? He coordinated for Peyton and was Tebow's QB coach? So did Mike McCoy and he's a train wreck. He made Cutler look a little less like Cutler? To me it seems like the Philbin hire, only younger, and they are again putting all their eggs in the "can he fix Tannehill?" Basket.

The offense is that bad, they have some good receivers and just need to improve the running game a bit. The OL needs to be upgraded and overhauled but that's up to the GM to acquire the talent. The defense is the real problem. It's a mess. No LBs to speak of. The DL is basically Suh, Wake isn't getting any younger. The secondary needs help as well. Edited January 9, 2016 by Wayne Cubed

Peter Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 So there is a possibility that LaCanfora is correct? Well done.
YoloinOhio Posted January 9, 2016 Author Posted January 9, 2016 Yup yup 5 year deal @rapsheet The #Dolphins will officially introduce Adam Gase as their new head coach today at 3 pm. Expect #Bengals DBs coach Vance Joseph to be his DC
YoloinOhio Posted January 9, 2016 Author Posted January 9, 2016 @armandosalguero At the start of this process, Mike Tannenbahum, the point man on the Dolphins search, wanted Doug Marrone.
C.Biscuit97 Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 I don't think he is anything special but I'm all in favor of going with the young guy instead of a bad retread. Tannehill has a chance for a rare hat trick. Get 3 offensive head coaches fired!!! The Fins definitely went all in on RT.
Wayne Cubed Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 @armandosalguero At the start of this process, Mike Tannenbahum, the point man on the Dolphins search, wanted Doug Marrone. Not sure I buy that... @JayGlazer Adam Gase was the Dolphins no 1 target BEFORE they even played their last game. Got their man
Kelly the Dog Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Not sure I buy that... @JayGlazer Adam Gase was the Dolphins no 1 target BEFORE they even played their last game. Got their man Could easily just be the difference between who Ross wanted and who Tannebaum wanted as the first choice. I don't really believe any Marrone rumors though.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 i saw one reporter (josina Anderson I believe) say that some teams interview coaches simply as a favor to the agent as they have players repped by same guy. Makes a ton of sense. Indeed, makes sense and why not? If they interview, build some relatively cheap goodwill with the agent. If they love the guy, they hire him. If they think he sucks, they can still tell the agent "thanks, we think he's a strong candidate, lot to like there, we just feel so and so is a better fit for what our organization needs right now, best of luck" Edit: Freudian slip? Instead of "best" I initially typed "bust". My feelings on St Doug as a HC, I'm afraid my feelings on Rex Ryan as a coach too but would love to be shown wrong. Marrone must have a great agent to be getting interviews and media buzz. I'd be shocked if he actually got hired to be a HC though. He does indeed have a great agent.
Wayne Cubed Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Could easily just be the difference between who Ross wanted and who Tannebaum wanted as the first choice. I don't really believe any Marrone rumors though. It could but the St. Doug PR machine is strong. It was the same thing last year when he didn't get the Jets job. "Yea but he was Woody Johnsons first choice." I think it's a bit of a save face and put out by his agent. I doubt Tannenbaum would deny it.
FireChan Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 I know that I'm one of the resident Marrone apologists, but I think this is a good read. Lots of parallels to the start of Coach Coughlin IMO. http://www.theplayerstribune.com/giants-tom-coughlin-tribute-coach/ From Strahan - We all heard stories about how strict he was coming from Jacksonville. I don’t think too many of us were looking forward to playing for him when we found out he got the job. The issues I had with his coaching style early on were well-documented. It all started from one big argument I got into with him. I think when we both laid it out there, it was clear that we both wanted to accomplish the same things. We were just coming at it from different perspectives. And from that point on, both our mentalities shifted. He stopped being hung up on whether our socks were too low or our cleats were the wrong color. And we stopped viewing him as a boss, and more like a father who just wanted what was best for us. Sounds like Coughlin had a rep as a control freak and hard-ass, but at his second stop, he eventually mellowed out and compromised with his new team.
