Fired coach talks about how Marrone did it

Ex-LBs Coach Shocked by Dismissal

Someone put 24 hour surveillance on Clark Lea.

 

[CuseCrew08]

Lea was brought on by Shafer last year, he never coached with Marrone.

Agree...but I think what Marrone's stated reason was code for making his staff more "diverse".

 

[SUFaninNJ]

We all know that Conley isn't filling the vacancy.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Guys, it's cool, this move was totally in the binder.

 

[Mr Peabody]

Doug better keep looking if he thinks linebacker coach was the weak spot on his staff. If Pettine gets offered Cleveland job that staff will be in a world of hurt.

Ex-LBs Coach Shocked by Dismissal

Marrone is fast becoming a Linebacker Coach serial killer.

There's one hell of a lb coach from CT available.

Doug might need a Defensive Coordinator. Pettine interviewing for the Browns head coaching job Thursday and really he is the only guy who hasn't told them NO at this point. Now maybe after the interview he will tell them NO, but Pettine would probably jump at a head coaching job. Hell with the Jets he leaked all their info out to the reporters and was only out for himself. I don't see him turning down an NFL head coaching gig if offered.

Yep, he's a terrible human being.

Pettine was effusive in thanking his former boss at his introductory press conference with the Browns.
"Looking back on my year with the Bills, it’s a bittersweet thing for me to leave there," Pettine said on Thursday. "I had such a tremendous year there with that organization, led by Ralph Wilson, Russ Brandon, Doug Whaley, and then I especially want to thank Doug Marrone. He opened my eyes to a lot of things about this league. He helped me greatly through the interview process, and I just learned so much football, and probably more importantly the non-football stuff, from Doug. He was tremendous for me."

here I come to save the day

 

[Orangemen]

Oh good, it's been awhile since we've had a negative thread about the guy who absolutely saved this program from the brink.

 

[KaiserUEO]

ill stick these 2 marrone tidbits in here:

1. Jay Glazer said that if the bills didnt hire him, the browns wouldve. he was their guy and they got trumped.

2. Jim Kelly gave him a big endorsement on B & C this am.

if he doesnt work out as a HC, i can see him sticking around as an OC for a while. expecially for the young hotshot HC that needs an adult running 1 side of the ball.

Dont care

So.

Pettine got a promotion and took his guys with him.

And Henderson is still on the staff.

Not sure what your point is.
