No, they're not. But neither franchise are willing to sit on their hands. As much as I think Cleveland looks really bad here (Banner hired Chudzinski) they decided to make the change now rather than wait another season. Call that knee-jerk, but the league is rapidly changing and most fans aren't willing to accept losing very long. Buffalo is 28-52 since 2009, or good for winning 35% of their games. They've gone through 2 HC's and are on #3 since that time.
And for the record, the last time the term "continuity" was discussed on this board was late December 2008 when RW decided to retain the recently re-signed Dick Jauron. He of the 2-8 finish to that season. That didn't end up working.
Continuity is garbage.I think continuity can work for or against you. Say what you want about Jauron but the issues were different then. The team didn't have the same risks on his roster as the do on Greggo's Marrone's. Stay with Greggo Marrone and you likely screw any chance EJ has to make it in Buffalo.
I can't say everything Greggo Marrone has done has been bad. The players seem to play hard for him. Perhaps as they see this blatant cronyism and the special teams blame being heaped on them instead of where it belongs that will wane. Perhaps as Greggo's Marrone's horrible communications skills with the press wear on it will create distractions that hurt the team or perhaps Greggo Marrone will adapt and learn. This retention does not bode well for his willingness to adapt.

This is a stupid discussion. Marrone needs to succeed in roughly three years if he wants to have a head coaching career in the NFL. Yet he hired--and apparently will not fire-- a special teams coach after one year who apparently will doom the team and, a fortiori, Marrone's coaching career. Is it not possible that Marrone thinks Crossman is a good coach and did not have enough tools to work with yet so he deserves the time to develop the ST into a solid unit? Is the point here that there was ample talent to field a good special team unit, but Crossman messed it up? How does anyone here know that. What proof do you have other than your own opinion?
I think Marrone believes continuity is important is developing a team-- including special teams. Seems sound to me. The fact that Crossman was not fired after one year does not mean he is not being held accountable, it means Marrone feels he has not had enough time yet to develop a quality ST unit. Simple.
And don't point out Crossman's history at Detroit or Carolina. Maybe you all feel he should not have been hired in the first place, but Marrone disagreed and one year is typically not enough time to quit on someone trying to build something. If Marrone thought Crossman was a fail, he'd fire him now to save himself, not keep him around and have his "old friend" screw up his career-- that don't make walkin' around sense. Marrone might be wrong, but people have no quality information to judge the situation, and Marrone does.
The Danny Snyder quick fix mentality on this board is amazing. People always want heads to roll to make themselves feel better.
A guy has a track record 10 years long of poor results and the head coach, who has repeatedly shown himself to be a blowhard, is his best friend. This same blowhard fired a WR coach due to "differing philosophies". Unless Greggo Marrone's philosophy is "try to consistently rank at the bottom of the league, this doesn't make sense. And the board is stupid for even discussing it?
-
As I recall, players was the excuse in Detroit as well.
Sans Crossman they moved up to #20 this year. Not great, yet we'd all take it.

Not surprising a all, considering their relationship. I read a while back that "Danny" was his best friend. Here's an article from a year ago that lays out their history:
“For now, Marrone is just glad he got the coach he wanted for his special teams unit. 'The thing I am excited about for what Danny will bring to our specialteams is a system that plays to our players’ strengths-something that we have obviously talked about,' said Marrone. 'For our players, we are going to be able to evaluate what their strengths are and be able to put them in the best position possible for us to win.'"
Greggo Marrone has unfortunately shown his arrogant ineptitude again. I do think that Whaley will let him go after 2014. It is a sad day but had Greggo Marrone fired Crossman he may have sealed our 2015 fate too.

I don't think "enjoying movies" is a long-term effect.
And you certainly don't seem uptight, no...
Maybe he was watching Titanic. If he could enjoy that crap for 194 minutes that's pretty long term.
Plus pot people are the most up tight. They are constantly trying to justify their actions and push away their obvious guilt by lashing out at other people. It's like those sluts from the 1960s wanting free birth control. They knew they were sluts but why admit it when you can blame someone else?
-
nice spin, your a legend in your own mind. i like the attacks from you while complaining about attacks. whats short is in your pants I am like an elephant bro. i never forget.
and yes i am that guy that makes sure 2 year olds don't eat off the street and yes you do suck for making broad generalizations
lets knock off the speculation, no one said pot was great nor is booze.
ramble ramble ramble though. we have all seen this show before.
I think you're remembering something else in someone else's pants Mr. Elephant.
Being a mom is a tough job. Maybe she isn't doing it perfectly but it is NOT her fault that loser hippies are dropping drugs everywhere.
Please note my use of the apostrophe in this post.
Are you stoned again? Because it sounds like you're stoned again.

Personal attack my arse, You want to act like everyone that smokes a little pot wears tie dye shirts and lives in their moms basement awaiting Taco Bell's newest creation.
Obviously you don't know, so don't talk about it. As far as I go, I will do whatever I please any habits I have are my business.
Denver's so dumb, taxing 1 million dollars in pot sales in ONE day. geeeeeesh.
Perhaps your clouded short term memory failed to recognize that you told me I suck and implied that Mrs. Hernandez was a bad mother. Those are personal attacks and/or projections.
Your habits are your habits and that is fine; but at least recognize their impact on society and what other people have to endure to make up for them. At least the booze loser crowd has the ability to recognize their habits are bad. You don't see drunks running around telling everyone that schnapps somehow enlighten them and make them smarter than everyone else. Oh but God forbid any pot head admit to himself or anyone else that this is a vice that has costs. That would make them face their own guilt and self doubt.
It doesn't surprise me that many of them are also music thieves because their reactions to criticism and lack of logic or introspection are almost identical.
-
Perhaps Mrs Hernandez should watch her kid so she is not eating food off the ground ?
Steve Jobs, Steven King , Michael Phelps, Ted Turner, Sir Richard Branson, Bill Gates, Bloomberg, Oprah, Morgan freeman, and my personal favorite David Letterman
These guys are all dumb hippies in your judgmental world.
Op u suck. The list above would laugh at your "nice shoes"
More people died from Peanut allergies then pot last year Fwiw.
Outlaw peanuts !
If that list of morons makes you feel better about a bad habit then fine, but please stop the personal attacks. Mrs. Hernandez cannot be expected to be held responsible for dirt bags dropping their stash everywhere.
Also, keep in mind that your list of famous people would also include John Bernstein, Maria Murray, Dylan Thomas, Paul King, Niles Arndt, and Jim Karpasik among hundreds of others if they hadn't got burned out and lost their chance at success.
except for this girl that almost died, would have put that number at 1 !
How many of the motor vehicle crashes and homicides were caused by pot? Peanuts?
-
Thanks guys. Didn't stay up for the end. I will look up the game recap.

Martin was assigned to the White House that weekend, but with President Barack Obama still on vacation in Hawaii, she spent the day looking for shots that would illustrate the cold weather.
-
An example of your logical failure?
IT'S FOR THE CHILDREN!!!
In your fantasy world where free music is everywhere and pot cookies naturally lay in the streets as if they were pebbles, what color tie dye shirt do you where?
-
Alex Tanney has a great YouTube video, too. Maybe we should bring him back.
You're missing the point. Look it up.
-
Out of curiosity , what is the Barbarian's success rate on QB picks now? ;-)
-
Chad Henne has a great Youtube video but I can"t link it without getting in trouble.
-
I had no idea that you walked around in million dollar shoes. Impressive.
Be careful not to step on any nails.
The nail thing was an example. All that pot may have made your brain cells artificially scarce.

How'd that Luck prediction pan out?
I did pick them to win anyway but he did try to blow it. He said so himself. If Andy Reid could have figured out how to protect a 4touchdown lead I would have been 3-1 so feel free to nit pick.
-
I think Ball State plays In Buffalo's conference. They are saying their QB Keith Wenning is an NFL prospect. Do you Bulls fans agree? Also does anyone know if he is related to that crappy safety who could jump out of a pool?
-
Going into last week I was CONVINCED that if the Chargers snuck into the playoffs they were going to end up losing the Super Bowl. I just don't think the AFC is that strong. They looked pretty bad on Sunday though so my expectations have diminished. I will go with them this week just because; plus Dalton throws so many picks.
Also:
SF, NO, Colts although I would not be surprised if Luck blew it big time...the Chiefs just are not that good.
4-0

Rocks and other small objects are also found on the ground. I'm willing to wager my entire annual paycheck against yours that more children die choking on small objects found on the ground than die eating pot cookies found on the ground.
Shall we outlaw small objects? Or perhaps we should outlaw the ground, as that seems to be the thing that all of these child deaths have in common?
Either way, THINK OF THE CHILDREN!
I don't get a paycheck as I am the proprietor so I like the odds. I won't bother taking your paycheck though. It isn't worth the time or bother as my shoes cost more than your house.
Anyway, your logic dictates that it is ok for people to throw rusty nails into school yards because there were rocks there too.
While I do realize that more kids will get hooked on pot and have their brains drained than will pick up a cookie and get sick, two wrongs don't make a right. True enough that hippy losers all over the street will be bad enough, but sick kids is probably a consequence nobody ever thought about when they were stoned/writing this law. Or they don't care because they are hippies and it is all about them anyway.
-
If the idiots kill their children, there will be fewer idiots in the future.
The kid picked up a cookie off the ground which was dropped by a hippy. Reading is your friend.

There is tangible proof that Seattle made the right choice.
Unlike some of the more barbaric posters I am usually right about QBs. I have to admit being wrong about Wilson though. I thought he was that kid Russell from the movie "Up". It just sounded like a loser move to me. I have been right though about:
Blaine.....that one was easy
Talleywhacker
Blake Bortles
Glove Wearing Mary
and many others.
I don't really know what the Bills should do from here. I liked some of the things I saw in EJ and others concern me. The bottom line for me is that with Greggo Marrone at the helm we are in trouble. I think drafting non-Qbs will set up our roster better for the next coach. Once a QB is down, it is hard to revive him and I think Greggo Marrone could screw up Unitas. I see no reason to take another QB for him to ruin while he is still in mid-ruin of EJ. Use that spot on an LB or OL who can be productive post Greggo Marrone.

Oh good. It's a "But, THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!" thread.
/golfclap
Actually if you read the link it is a "drug up the children" thread. This incident is merely a by product and one of the many examples of a society overrun by idiots that will inevitably ensue.
-
Well if we follow the S.O.P. of the Left, we need to outlaw the object not the behavior,
so let's criminalize possession of pot.......................oh wait, we can't do that again.
outlaw cookies ? ?
.
I guess you'd rather kill babies to preserve people's rights to turn themselves into abject idiots? These idiots in Colorado and Washington are already paying. But by all means, let's get all 50 states into the act so we can be overrun and conquered. Why no public orgies like in ancient Rome?
-
Easy to get all worked up over this, but it's a little too early to crucify the mother until we know more details.
How many toddlers end up in the emergency room (or just end up taking a 4 hour nap) every year because they get their hands on alcohol?
I don't fault the Mom. Babies pick up stuff off the ground all the time. I blame the self centered loser hippy who felt the need to get stoned in public and was too stoned to hold onto his cookie. But hey, in a free society, access to pot and freedom to make yourself into a loser for all to see trumps a two year old. Yay for losers.

Wouldn't an interview question be:
So what is your philosophy regarding......?
As for processing a ten year record of failure, that should have been easy too.
