I wouldn't be wouldn't be surprised if Marrone wasn't a little miffed with the way Pettine left the Bills. Perhaps that is why Pettine is assuming some bad blood...but I think most fans liked him, if they didn't love him as our DC. Maybe my memory is hazy, though. Didn't some Bills fans get into a "war of tweets" with Pettines daughter? Or was that just Jim Kellys' daughter?

the only thing I remember about Pettines daughter was she inadvertently broke the news on twitter that he had a 2nd intvw with the Browns and said it was "the browns, but still pretty cool." Lol. She thought she was tweeting it just to one person but...

 

Pettine barely had a cup of coffee in Buffalo. Not important enough to dislike -- and our defense is better since he left.

yep. I don't dislike him. I like him because I have no reason not to and he generally did a good job when he was here. Had he left to take a DC job somewhere else I suppose it might be different. Edited by YoloinOhio

Why not? Does he think we are pissed that he left? I don't know why there would be fan hate.

 

@FSOhioZJackson: Pettine: "Heading back to Ralph Wilson, I don't necessarily think I'll get the warmest reception. It might be worse for Donte (Whitner)."

 

I wonder what the reception will be from the players. I mean I think they know it is a business but a one and done coach? They have to feel a little disrespected by getting ditched like that. Or atleast maybe they can use that to step it up a notch and show Pettine what he left behind.

 

It is not worth any brain cells discussing Wimpner

I think we as Bills fan respect and appreciate Pettine.

Oh I hope someone takes a dump on Whitner right as he's trotting out. But for Pettine, I'd expect he'd get a warm ovation. Did a good job here, and opened up a spot for a D coordinator just as good

 

Actually much better...this coordinator doesn't need to blitz to get sacks and has largely fixed the run D although it hasn't been as dominant as it was the first half of the year where they were holding opponents to a league low 2.8 YPC...

 

Best 3rd down D in the league and they are actually getting more pressure and sacks than Pettine's D with less rushers...and no Kiko even..

Actually, considering what a mess our D was before he came and the trajectory he put it on and we're still riding now, the Bills fan will probably cheer him.

 

Our defense was never a mess. Wanny just was awful. Our defense is loaded with 1st and 2nd rounders.

 

Pettine knew what he was doing coming here. Schwartz is smart too. We have top 3 talent on defense. You just need to be competent as a coach and you will look really good.

Can't use quotes on here for some reason, but yeah, Whitner could use a baby ruth shower. Then replace the W in his name with an S, and there ya go Donte, new nickname and better fitting. Yeah, I hope Pettine gets a lot of love from the crowd when he comes out. Can't say anything but good things about the guy

 

Hey, are you using Internet Explorer? I couldn't quote people on IE, and I switched to Google Chrome, and that was the only thing that worked for me..
