Quote:2014 was the Bills first season without Ralph Wilson as owner. The new owners moved on quickly.

Quote:You really think moving Mel Tucker to interim head coach for 5 games lead to this current death spiral?
You really think moving him to HC brought anything positive?
Quote:Marrone wasn't fired, he quit.
This is what makes the idea of bringing on Morrone as intern so foolish.
He didn't want his last head coaching job. What makes people think he wants to take over this train wreck even in the intern is beyond me.

Did I say that? Mel Tucker didn't start the [BLEEP] storm, Gene Smith did.
After surviving quite possibly one of the worst General Managers of all time, the Jags take it one step further with the worst Head Coach since the merger...virtue builds character!

Wow. That is hilarious. Just change Mike Williams and Jerry Hughes with McCray and Chris Smith.
Pretty sad Marrone has more wins in one season than Gus Bradley has in 3 years.
With Kyle Orton at QB.

Well you sure are advocating doing that now like it worked back then. Heck, in another year or two we might be talking about the [BLEEP] storm that Caldwell started.

It helps when you're coaching a team with a pretty stacked roster. The Bills are one QB away from being perennial playoff contenders.

That's bad logic anyway.
That's like saying having a top 10 pick isnt a good thing, because we've had one for the last 10 years.
I don't see the issue with letting Marrone take over in an interim role, this team doesn't have enough talent to get a bunch of wins, so I doubt you hurt your draft chances too much, but you get the added benefit of evaluating a potential coach, instead of just doing it blindly after the season is down the toilet.
If he does miraculously somehow get this team 6+ wins, you might have someone worth keeping.

Your logic is like sticking your hand in a fire and getting burned then doing it again thinking it will feel good the next time.

And wasn't he coaching in the same division as the Belichick and Brady?
Now that is a slap into reality by a cold hard hand.
