Big Turk Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Great hire Jaguars....he wants to run the ball every play...let's see how well that works in years two and three after he's had a chance to ruin the offensive line... "Last month, when head coach Doug Marrone was asked how many times quarterback Blake Bortles would ideally throw in a game, he said 'Zero.' That was not really a joke. 'For me, I want to run the ball every play, Marrone told reporters. I want to go back to the old way. I want to change the game.'" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I mean...theoretically, if you can do that and win, then you're amazing. Marrone just wants to be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I just like that Marrone is confident enough to "change the game." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I just like that Marrone is confident enough to "change the game." I bet Marrone thinks he will be the guy that ended the use of franchise QB's. He's going to run the ball so effectively that QB's who can throw will be obsolete. I really think he's that delusional.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Marrone must not have watched the super bowl. No lead is safe in today's NFL with the way passing rules are. If you have a QB that can pass the football you have a chance in any game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marrone may not have a QB that "can" pass because he's not allowed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Haha, we still have NFL coaches who are run first. NFL coaches are the most boring, conservative human beings on the planet. Marrone has wet dreams of Bill Parcells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fingon Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I mean, certain defenders are getting smaller so I can definitely see where he's coming from. Late 90s or early 2000s coaches would be having wet dreams about the prospects of going against 6-0 220 lb linebackers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was a lesson from the Superbowl it was no lead is safe when you are ideologically determined to pass every play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostbitmic Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Running the ball up the gut every play was so successful in Buffalo it should propel the Jaguars to the Super Bowl. Defensive coordinators league wide will be trembling in their shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Obviously. This will lead to more punts. Marrone may really try to change the game by punting on 3rd down. Omg please just move the Jags to London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) Obviously. This will lead to more punts. Marrone may really try to change the game by punting on 3rd down. Omg please just move the Jags to London. Or Canada. You know, so he only has to run twice before... Edited July 28, 2017 by eball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transient Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) Obviously, if Bortles doesn't throw the ball, obviously, then there's obviously more opportunities to punt, obviously, which is Marrone's forte. Smart. Play to your strengths. Damn you, Yolo. Beat me by seconds. Edited July 28, 2017 by transient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 The pateneted field goal offense will return. He just loves playing the tough guy. Complete arse of a man... not a totally useless coach though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 As someone that's watched quite a bit of Blake Bortles, I am wholly behind this idea. Hell, just run the wildcat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
