How did he "get lucky" with Marrone?  That Marrone was available in the first place?

Marrone had a record of success as an NFL head coach.  He wound up on the Jaguars coaching staff, and improved the offinsive line performance during his tenure.  When he was interim coach, the team performed well under him.

As far as Caldwell being safe, Khan just signed him to another contract.  Why wouldn't Caldwell be safe at this stage?

That's what I am saying. Marrone essentially bailed him out. If Marrone wasn't here or had he jumped ship after being the interim coach in 2016. Had he just flat out failed as a coach this year it may have ended up costing Caldwell his job. That's just a simple observation. And even with the extension I don't think he's safe. If this team falls apart in 2018 and they completely fail to build off from their success in 2017 he's more than likely out. 

Prior to last year Caldwell's decision making was questionable. He waited too long with the firing of Bradley and he vehemently defended his stance on Bortles. Like I said, Bradley was a [BLEEP] box head coach. That's a given. But part of Caldwell's job is to identify and see that and he should have promptly handled that a lot sooner than he did.
