Quote:What makes you so sure? Marrone is making $4M plus whatever the Jaguars are paying. It's entirely possible that Marrone was brought in on a one-year deal, with the understanding that he'd only be here for that one year. It's kind of like the deal that Gregg Williams got to be the DC here. Come in for one year, let your old team pay you to work for us, then move on at the end of the season.

 

If someone offered me a one-year contract and another person a multiyear contract, do you think I would feel as valued and wanted as the other person? Probably not. When all assistant coaches were offered one-year contracts, Mike Shula, then our quarterback coach, bolted for Carolina. Why? Because he wanted a multiyear contract with job security, of course.
