Doug Marrone is the Jags interim coach
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.

People love mocking him for quitting but head coaches don't quit NFL jobs very often.
We've now had 2 quit in the past decade.
It says something about the organization.
The crappy part is, ironically, it saved Whaley's job. After Marrone walked, Polian didn't want to have to find a GM, A Head Coach, and a franchise QB, so he walked. And Whaley the Weasel got to stay.

While it does say something about the organization, it also says something about St. Doug who thought he had the Jets job locked down. Are he and Hackett ready to shine ? I really don't think so, but someone will need an o-line coach and his sidekick again next year.
