EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Is anyone seriously sad that he is leaving? Even if Schwartz goes too, this defense is a top-5 unit; 9-win club. I have to think people will be jumping to come here. With no first round draft pick or franchise QB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixxxer Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Great D, New owner. Team went 9-7 with some inept offensive coaching. OL problem is mostly a guard issue, so it shouldn't be hard to fix in the offseason. This looks like a GREAT job now, IMO. I hope you're right Deano.

Simon Says Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 If indeed there was a power struggle...I guess we know who lost , or at least quit. Wonder where he ends up..he kind of got treated like crap by the FO..Pegula now has to make a major move for a top notch NFL head coach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan in Chicago Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I'm all in with The Chin. See my note above about being careful what you wish for. The Chin should have his rump firmly planted in the studios unless it is to coach the Jets. I dont have a very favorable opinion of him ever since his handling of the Kordell 'Slash' Stewart situation and his general inability to take a very talented team further than he did. But let me not derail this conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dean Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Marrone may have been a good HC but he had the personally of a foot, I'd like Rex as a head coach and bring back Chan as OC. You give a damn about the HC's personality? Rex has already proven to be a terrible HC. There should be a riot in Buffalo if he is hired, IMO.

Max997 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Actually it does no such thing. Yes it does. There was zero other reason to start Orton who most thought at the time wouldn't even be back next year in that game. Say what you want but at end of day coaches are judged on wins and losses and getting to 9 wins was all Marrone cared about...feel free to live in denial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I would love if he became coach of the Jets. What a rivalry. Plus I don't think he will do well.

Nitro Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Now the Bills start from scratch or do they? Do they promote Schwartz to Head Coach? Bring in a big name like Cowher? Another who candidate? Who ever he is, he will have a top 10 Defense. Solid special teams. Talent at skill positions on Offense. The two biggest challenges will be getting a starting QB and up grade the Offensive line. Marrone is well regarded around the league for the job he did in Buffalo. I don't know if he will land a head coaching job this year. Oakland is a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then asked for extensions for his assistants and was told no. Later coward. Wanted assurances before he produced a playoff birth? Sorry Dougie. No dinero for the worst offense in the NFL. You really do think you are something special, don't you? Rex or Schwartz, and please destroy whatever team Doug Marrone's sorry a$$ lands on if any will have him and baby nate.

Kelly the Dog Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I would want to know who the guy is that is brought in to run the offense, but I would have no problem if Schwartz is the guy and there is a top OC.
