Re: Bills to interview Doug Marrone
We should create a thread with all the coaches scheduled to have interviews.
So far it's Marrone and Horton with confirmed interviews.Comment

Re: Bills to interview Doug Marrone
Marrone is an extremely solid candidate imo...and not just because he's at 'Cuse. He has set the Orange in the right direction after they had been completely destroyed by Greg "Worst-football-coach-in-Big-East-history" Robinson. He was Sean Peyton's first OC of a potent NO offense before getting hired away by 'Cuse. He has background as an OL too. If he could get a nice staff together, I'd be happy with Marrone.

Re: Bills to interview Doug Marrone
This is typical Bills mismanagement. This guy might be a credible candidate, but, after years of screwing around with piss poor head coaches, it's time to go for the sure bet instead of a hope and a prayer that some obscure college coach will work out in the NFL.Comment

Re: Bills to interview Doug Marrone
I'm with Jeff great candidate. Sal was convinced he wouldn't interview here, whereas he just signed an extension.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: Bills to interview Doug Marrone
I wouldn't call Doug Marrone an obscure college coach. Like I said, this was the OC for the NO offense to start the Sean Payton era. Syracuse alum lobbied hard for him to come back and coach his alma mater.Comment

Re: Bills to interview Doug Marrone
Marrone's not obscure at all. A couple months ago, Peter King listed him as one of a handful of college coaches who would draw serious NFL consideration this offseason. Peter was correct.

Re: Bills to interview Doug Marrone
Maybe "obscure" is the wrong word choice. How about "untested". It's been proven difficult to move from the college ranks to NFL. This is not the time to hope that, just this time, this guy will be the exception and become an immediate success in the NFL.Originally posted by Jeff1220 View Post
I don't buy it.
This crappy organization needs a big, fat wake up call. Fan revolt. I would not buy a Bills ticket if it was $1. Send them a message. Start acting like a real NFL team, or sell the freakin thing!Comment

Re: Bills to interview Doug Marrone
He has plenty of NFL experience as part of the Parcells>Payton coaching tree. "Marrone has received endorsements from men such as Saints general manager Mickey Loomis, Saints coach Sean Payton and Bill Parcells." http://m.espn.go.com/nfl/story?storyId=8795820&wjbComment
