Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I'm wondering if Hackert will stay in Buffalo as maybe assistant OC or something like thta who reports to Roman or who ever the OC does end up being. If Fred Jacksons comments about him are accurate, the issue there may also have been Marrone. Hackert is still very young, he may be willing to take a step backwards under someones guidance and could turn up again as an OC candidate for some other team. Roman's name was mentioned as a potential HC this year, if the Bill's do improve on offense, he could be gone a couple years and Hackert resumes his old position. Certainly the path I'm descirbing isn't well traveled, not likely, but could see it playing out in some way similar. Hackett will fall off next......

QuoteTheRaven83 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Why are we still talking about this clown? He's probably thinking about his next coaching gig after this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niagara Dude Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I am beginning to think that (based on LaConfora's reports etc.) that LaConfora is the media shill for Marrone. This guy is a little worm who talks down about Buffalo and was always promoting the lower end of coaching candidates as good for a place like Buffalo.Was shocked that Ryan would even consider coming here. I have heard him speaking bad about Buffalo many times on a Toronto radio station the 590 the fan when franchise was for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many are surprised he will take Bills @JasonLaCanfora: Arthur Blank very much interested in Ryan. Naturally process delayed when Blank had a death in his family. Surprised Rex's camp didn't wait @JasonLaCanfora: Falcons job comes with a QB and an offense in a poor division with driven owner and it's close to Clemson, where Rex's son plays ... @JasonLaCanfora: Count me among those very surprised by the timing of this. Bills job seen as the least attractive available by many. No QB. No 1st rd pick @JasonLaCanfora: I understand on some level Rex being worried about not getting any coaching job, but more patience and I think he coulda had his top job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been a huge storyline and lot's of easy work for them going into next season. I do not care what the media "feels" and neither should any Bills fan. The Bills remaining irrelevant is in the best interest of the media. Less work. Less trips to smaller, cold weather cities. But more importantly more stories in bigger markets equates to more attention for them and their twitter accounts which they can take to contract negotiations. That's why what the national media would call a *bad* hire for the Jets or Chicago they might call a purdy-good one for the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max997 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) I would not be surprised if Marrone takes the year off from being a head coach, collects his 4 mil and maybe just consults like we heard he may do with Texans. My guess is if he doesn't get the Falcons or Bears jobs he waits and returns to college next year. Edited January 11, 2015 by Max997 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 If Marrone misses a year in NFL coaching this year, he probably won't be back. I am not sure he has enough good will associated with his name around the league to survive a year of being off the radar. He needs to get back on a horse somewhere this year and coach. The dominos will start falling now that Rex has committed. We'll know in a week (I think) Marrone's fate. The interesting thing is that his camp obviously gambled on him being desirable around the league; it now looks like that gamble may well fail. He should be looking for new representation if nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skibum Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) If I was getting paid $4 million to do nothing next year, I wouldn't care if I ever had another job interview for the rest of my life.
