I'm seriously beginning to doubt Khan's viability as an owner. He doesn't seem to know what the hell he is doing. This entire process has screamed incompetence. Whether or not Marrone is a good coach or not, you wait until the last 2 games of the season to give the guy a shot when you should have just fired Bradley after the TNF game where it was clear this season was a wash. You then go through this whole elaborate process of even hiring a search firm just to hire the guy you should have put in charge weeks ago who was already in the building. On top of that, you keep the GM who had just as much to do with 15-49 as the HC you just fired and put the team in a situation where the GM is a lameduck and will be fired if serious progress is not made next year, which made the job less attractive, which I brought up in a thread months ago. With the Marrone hire, the chances of the staff being overhauled are extremely low, and we're stuck with this dumb defense that limits our playmakers and the players have already trashed. On top of that, Bortles will clearly be given free reign next year.

 

This hire is a sign of ultimate incompetence on Khan's part and is clear that Caldwell couldn't make the job attractive to other candidates. Even if Marrone is not a bad coach, I feel this entire situation is leading to yet another 12-14 loss season because the QB sucks, nothing will be changed around him to actually fix that, and the entire way this organization is being managed right now makes absolutely no sense. Good god, I thought Khan would be a good owner but he is proving to be incompetent in the other direction of most owners, which is TOO MUCH PATIENCE and not enough willingness to get rid of guys that should be. It's clear Khan doesn't understand football and is letting Caldwell sink this franchise. smh.
