Max Fischer Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 ... ... Damn, it's entirely too early to start drinking. Seriously? This isn't just because I wanted Lovie. I'm not a big fan of the idea of recruiting a college head coach but if we were going to do it, we could have tried getting someone with a slightly more productive program. Please, someone give me hope for how we're going to get a fix for our QB spot, creatively use our run game and bolster a talented yet underperforming defense. Spend a little time reading about Marrone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPS Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Except for moron and maroon. (nice setup) And he knocks it out of the park.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Fischer Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 The deal isn't done yet. It was leaked at an opportune time I'm pretty sure you are 12 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckknox Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Did Buddy Nix help make this decision? Maybe it was his thanks to them for firing him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealth Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Anyone the Bills hired would be berated by fans. It's a no win situation. Honestly I don't know much about Marrone but I love the idea of CJ Spiller in a wco he's a tailor made rb for that. The big issue will be finding a qb but we needed that regardless of who the hc was. Now we'll see who Marrone is bringing in as coordinators. It def is a different kind of hire for the Bills that's for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJ753 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 The one thing that would make this hire even better would be if it drove the negative "Bills Fans" away once and for all! If you don't like the hire, go find another team to root for! Come on people! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammered a Lot Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) The deal isn't done yet. It was leaked at an opportune time Not a done deal yet. That's what Howie Simon said on GR this morning I would think Russell is watching the reaction on " The Stadium Wall" before confirming the possible hire.

KDIGGZ Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I'm pretty sure you are 12 years old. Because I said that the deal is not done yet? It's not. What's your point? Not a done deal yet.

eball Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I had thought that Marrone could be a serious dark horse candidate for Bills job. I hope he puts together a quality staff. WGR 55 reports that he and Fitz have the same agent. I hate that aspect of this hire . I simply do not want Fitz to return as QB. We cannnot win with hima at QB and he will not want to be a backup. This could contaminate what appears to be a forward thinking hire. Yeah, you'd absolutely hate to have that team-first, hard-working, great teammate mentality of Fitz poisoning the locker room. Fitz coming back doesn't mean Fitz is unquestioned starter or franchise guy, and he'd be the first one to go along with whatever direction the coaching staff wants to go.

Pondslider Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) Or it was announced when the deal got done. What the hell are you trying to say? Obviously the Bills tried to bury this story by giving fans all of the most football centric day of the week to talk about it because they were so embarrassed by it.

Max Fischer Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Because I said that the deal is not done yet? It's not. What's your point? You are somehow implying that the timing is suspicious as if the Bills are trying to hide or sugarcoat the hire. Which is nuts or juvenile. I gave you the benefit of the doubt.

Campy Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I see this as further confirmation nix is on his way out. Marrone is not his kind of guy ... Relatively young, not southern, not from SEC, no chargers connection, no history with nix. Just don't see the two of them fitting. It may not be applicable to your life experience, most well-adjusted adults can get along well with somebody not the same age, not from a similar geographic region, and do not have the same employers listed on their resume'. While it's doubtful Nix will be around in a few year's time, the Marrone hiring is by no means confirmation of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bladiebla Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Aha finally the boiling water to pour on the ground up coming from the freezer. I didnt like Gailey when he was hired, then I actually liked what I saw offense wise in his first two years... But I love this hire, it certainly makes me think this could work out great, however staffing is going to be essential. I hope we don't wind up with a bunch of college guys on staf again. This guy has W written all over his track record; where as Gailey kept an existing program going at it's current level where as Gailey his successor greatly improved on Gailey his record in his first year allready. Yes, good choice, now let's see if he can pass the first test and show what he's about when staffing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beautiful East Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Yeah, you'd absolutely hate to have that team-first, hard-working, great teammate mentality of Fitz poisoning the locker room. Fitz coming back doesn't mean Fitz is unquestioned starter or franchise guy, and he'd be the first one to go along with whatever direction the coaching staff wants to go. +1 If it works out financially, I would love to have Fitz being the guy mentoring the young QB talent we draft.

Pondslider Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Alternate theory: Russ Brandon has been holding up the NHL lockout and only allowed a deal to be made so that he could end the much publicized coaching search at a time when nobody would talking about sports.
