Quote:  Yet,  at the same time the Bills are coming off a disappointing 8-8 season under Rex Ryan.   Since Marv Levy,  the Bills have struggled mightily to find a HC solution.

 

  One thing that seems near certain is both Doug Marrone and Jim Schwartz are going to have to make considerable changes if given the opportunity as NFL HCs again.

But I'm not getting what Marrone did that was so bad, other than leave the Bills because the contract terms to which the Bills agreed enabled him to leave?

 

He's not good at press conferences?  So what?

 

The team lost a game it shouldn't have?  Welcome to the NFL.  Every team ends up losing a game it shouldn't.

 

For all of Rex Ryan's bravado, and the increased talent on the offensive side of the ball, he still couldn't bring Buffalo to even equal Marrone's year 2 record there.

 

This article asserts the areas the teams struggled in did not correlate to his supposed strengths.  But his first year here, sacks allowed were cut by 20.  Not all of that was attributable to him, but some were.
