It's true that Bills fans don't like Doug Marrone.  You have to understand that while Doug coached here in 2013 and 2014, from many media reports  he was known as a grumpy, short-fused, control freak who at time belittled people publicly.   He was not very popular around One Bills Drive and he treated the media very bad.  

I guess he learned a few things.  

The local media here love him and the fans have embraced him as well. 

He comes off like an endearing "every-man" in his pressers - is very transparent about his coaching and experiences  in pressers - not condescending at all unless someone asks a really stupid question  -  and most folks in Jax (even those that didn't like the hire) have become fans.

Sure that makes sense and I don’t doubt it.  It sounds like he learned a lot from the first stint coaching which happens a lot with coaches.   That was one of my points - he was a different person in Buffalo.

Also despite what some think here, most in the fan base are not lamenting Marrone leaving.  Especially now considering the current coach took a team with less talent to the playoffs.  Just sharing some of the reasons why some of the fan base has issues with Marrone.
