    I think they were arguing about Hakett's redzone offence:

    Or, he could just fire Hackett and take over playcalling duties himself. He was the OC in NO after all and even though that was all Sean Payton, he may have learned a thing or two.

    Re: Marrone and Whaley arguing at Practice Today

    "Whaley you son of b^&%h! Why did you go all in on this dumbass QB and not get ANY backup?"

    "I just signed Jordan Palmer for you."

    "Are you kidding me? This guy only completed 10 out of 15 passes for 2 interceptions and 34.4 overall QB rating in his entire career! I got guys on BillsZone who can do better than that!"

    "Hey, I didn't want to bring in anyone who would make EJ look bad. Compared to these turds he looks like the next Joe Montana!"

    I'd rather we bring in Hackett's father as OC as trust him more than I do Marrone running the offense.

    Re: Marrone and Whaley arguing at Practice Today

    Maybe it's just me, but I feel they were arguing global ramifications of United States force projection into unstable arenas of geopolitical unrest, as they relate to domestic party interactions in the nebulous future of the American governing system as we think of it today. That it was near the QB's was coincidental.

    They realize they're all goners by now with the wheels coming off and Marrone losing control of the team, so they don't have to pay attention to stuff like QB's anymore with their likely severance packages.

    Re: Marrone and Whaley arguing at Practice Today

    Maybe Doug wanted to see Jordan with the 1's and Whaley isn't having it? Just a thought...

    So he is pissed at Whaley for not bringing in a viable qb candidate.

    That's my guess.

    Next......
    Pure stupidity on Whaley's part. Might cost both Doug's their jobs.

    I sure can't imagine why anyone would doubt my insider knowledge after I have proven myself time and time again with my uncanny perspective in so many other places I can't tell anyone about because I am a humble man.

    As for the press, pah, but no. Probably won't ever know, they wouldn't have been near anyone who could hear too much. Sort of wouldn't surprise me either for Brandon and Whaley to tell Marrone to yell at them where the QB's might hear as some kind of motivational tool to try and spark some competence.

    Vick doesn't look so bad right now does he? Why we haven't signed Orton is mind boggling.

    Re: Marrone and Whaley arguing at Practice Today

    I don't get blaming Marrone and Whaley. They're just performing to the best of what they're capable given their abilities. I blame Brandon. This guy is in so over his head it's ridiculous. He has zero business running a football team. Clock is on Russ... this team lays an egg this year and you're done.

    Re: Marrone and Whaley arguing at Practice Today

    It's amazing. This team is still behaving in a dysfunctional way after 15 yrs. The old man is dead and buried and nothing has changed. As long as Ralph's old cronies are still here (Littman/Overdorf/crappy training staff/Brandon) nothing will ever change. The new owner needs to rid himself of these turds and tell Brandon to stay in marketing and no more personnel decisions or goodbye because i'm tired of this A-hole trying to pick coaches...players....drafts....keeping that POS hillbilly Nix around who by the way ruined this team again with one last crappy pick at QB to get "his" guy. This team was backed into a corner in picking a QB in a terrible QB class. They didn't want to but they were pressured too and boom..crap city again....

    Re: Marrone and Whaley arguing at Practice Today



    Wasn't Marrone just telling everyone that fighting has no place in football...?

    That being said, currently, the only hope I have is that the new owner doesn't put up with the bull**** that went on during the previous owner's tenure... The Brandons, Overdorfs and Littmans need to be removed from this organization on day damn one of the new owner's tenure. At this point, I don't care if that's even mid-season. Get rid of these clowns.

    Whaley and Marrone, I'm willing to give the rest of the season and possibly next season, depending on how the team finishes. But, everyone above the GM needs to be gone yesterday.

    6-10 and the new owners will be looking for a new coach.

    Bad QBs are coach killers.
