TheFunPolice Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Pegula will pay for the best coaches I think they find a top notch OC to help Marrone and he is just going to have to accept it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennesseeboy Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Marrone is someone the new ownership has to evaluate. The giving up two draft picks for Watson, drafting Manuel, failure to make playoffs works against him. Lackluster offensive performance works against him. I suspect he's on his last rodeo. If he gets another year it will be with a clear mandate. Playoffs or out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niagara Dude Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 This guy sucks bad as a coach and only because our standards here are so low the Bills will bring him back another year (waste another year on this loser).You don't pay 1.4 billion for your franchise to have a 50cent coach you picked-up from a loser football program.How many of our 8 wins were produced in the final minutes of the game (Detroit/Chicago & Vikings) all fools gold.

4merper4mer Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 If they don't currently, they will by tonight! I think that's a brilliant idea. Hey it could be worse. If he got to 9 wins he was going to tape a picture of his mug right over the top of that infant in the cradle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Bills Fan Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 All coaches salary's are paid by the owner right? They dont count against the cap? CBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattsox Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 My thoughts exactly. He said at his opening press conference when he was hired, he would get an OC that has NFL experience. Ugh, SMH, why the heck didn't you do it to begin with??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1billsfan Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 My sense is Pegula's will, for better or worse, follow up the $1B with big money for new management and coaching. Why spend $1B and let a couple college coaches run it? I think the Marrone era is over simply b/c new long term ownership is in town and they will study it, get some recommendations and then put their own people in. Nothing against Marrone and crew, I just think new owner means means new management. A rash of key IR-type injuries trashes whatever you do, but assuming that away, at 8 -8 , they are coaching , a decent QB and a couple drafted OLinemen from being 11-5 or better. All coaching candidates will probably see that. Ralph's imminent demise scared high end guys off until now. This could be the year they get a real NFL coaching staff. We shall see. I agree with this. I can list three potential Bills head coaches who would be a huge upgrades over Doug Marrone...Rex Ryan, Todd Haley and Frank Reich. Marrone looks like a guy who's lost and who's in over his head. I'm sure the new owner can see this a mile away because he's smart enough to become worth billions. I'm sure his consultant will only confirm his suspicions. Losing to Oakland may be a real blessing in disguise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Front Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I'd like to see the Bills keep Marrone for another season. We've gotten to our best record since 2004. He should come back for year 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm Front Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Give me one Buffalo Bill on offense who got better under Doug Marrone. I can give you three: Woods, Hogan and Dixon. Expecting at least 10-6 with this guy? Yeah, why not? If we had a decent QB we could have gotten two or three more wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of those guys aren't starters and Woods' good play is on the same level as last year. Playing QB under Marrone is like playing with one hand tied behind your back. When opposing defenses know your simple game plan before the ball is even kicked off then your offense is doomed. Aaron Rogers and Tom Brady would look horrible playing under Marrone's offense. Yes our QB is not good enough, but that isn't this team's biggest problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbb Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 well, 8-8 is OK if ownership had not just changed. Pegulas will take a hard look at this. You don't spend $1B and worry about the cost of cutting a guy you did not hire in the first place. So, assuming they get crushed by the Pats again, you can look to regime change I think. They failed with EJ, they put their jobs in his hands and the guy can't play, so you move on . I see it all getting blown up myself. Totally agree. New ownership is perfect time to blow this up. Can anybody see Marrone as a Super Bowl coach? And, Whaley gambled his job - and lost! He said at his opening press conference when he was hired, he would get an OC that has NFL experience.

Lol. You know who Robert Woods himself credits for his professional growth? Mike Williams. Hogan lol. Boobie? Really? Is that because it is the first time he has seen any playing time. An improvement from 0? Gragg too I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you evaluate Marrone you must evaluate the WHOLE team......regardless of how much control Schwartz has over the defense...he did in fact hire him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hired Schwartz. Good for him. He hired himself and Nate for offense. How has that been going? If our team had an average offense and the same D we'd be 13-3. If we had an average defense and the same O we'd be 1-15. So I'll give you that Marrone found a nice DC in Schwartz and hired him. He should now fire the O guys, and he is one of them. 8-8 means staying then? Dude, if he leaves he'll get a job somewhere so you can send your love letters there or still post them on this board when Illinois State Tech & Marketing goes to the Asparagus Bowl. The new owner can afford any coach he desires just like he can have any car he desires. I'm fine if the new coach is a Bently or a Beamer or a friggin Accord. As long as that Yugo up on blocks in the front yard goes bye bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
