Quote:Marrone openly coached the Bills offensive line. They regressed, from year 1 to year 2. They struggled before he came in then got worse. The LT and Center both

I think the main thing Bills fans coming here are looking for is dialogue.  The point isn't to bash, meerely to speak and converse, even if they are from opposite sides of the spectrum.  What no Jags fan is able to answer, or even address, is for an OL coach, why did his OL get progressively worse the more time spent here and with the unit, with largely the same players (OL) from the previous regime?  It is a serious question, what about that makes you excited or what is the reasonining for it. Same QB"s, same OL, improved talent at WR, same talent at RB.  How do all these units get worse if he is such a great hire?  What is really exciting to this fanbase about this hire, in X's and O's, data, video analysis (all-22 exists now we can do that), or stats?

 

 

His schemes did not fit the personnel.

 

That said, Seantrel Henderson seemed to develop nicely under him.

 

Questions for Bills fans:

 

Marrone was offensive coordinator for the Saints from 2006-2008.

 

1)  If Marrone were anathema to offensive football, why would a revered offensive mind like Sean Payton name him as offensive coordinator?

 

2)  If Marrone were anathema to offensive football, why would the Saints have a top 5 offense in two of Marrone's three years as offensive coordinator?

 

3)  If Marrone were so inept, and the team succeeded in spite of him, why did the guy who saved football in Buffalo, Terry Pegulla, try to retain him in his capacity as Head Coach?
