Looks like we could Doug Marrone as the next Tennessee Titans HC

not without a better job...now stay with me here...LINED UP AND SIGNED.

Talking to another team when you are in contract is a Rules and Ethics violation in the NFL and the team talking to you can be fined heavily for it.

What you are asking is impossible in the NFL without permission from the team you are under contract with.
 
glad you guys are all so worried about how much $$ doogie has or will make. are you on his payroll??

he most certainly will NOT get 5mill.

i doubt he even gets 4 if some owner and GM lose their minds and hire him.

if he gets another job then yeah, i guess the move would be a win for him and a HUGE slap in the face to the system and to the league.

i most certainly wouldnt want to be the fanbase that gets him.

so whos the new coach!!!!
uh, the guy who quit on the bills.
the bills?? were they ever any good??
not with him.
where else did he coach??
well, he took 2 Syracuse teams to the Pinstripe Bowl and won.
the what??
the Pinstripe Bowl.
What is that?...who'd they play the Yankees?? and i bet it wasnt even their starters .canceling my tickets now...puhfluckinleaz.

i still say he needs to rebuild his image A LOT.

but again, if McAdoo gets the job...marrone can come to the NYG and be the non-play calling OC for sure.

That guy that "Quit" on the Bills got them to a winning record for the first time since 2004 (over 10 years ago) without a real QB in a Quarterback driven league.

so the OP of this thread was Marrone getting the Tennessee gig.

hes not even interviewing there.

then we switched to new orleans...payton is staying.

so all hes got is the Giants...HA!

the dolphins...longshot.

or the browns...barely an NFL team.

lets see kids...

Interviewed with Cleveland, Miami, Giants and will interview with Tennessee...so some pretty good organizations are very interested in a "quitter" as you like to call him. It seems his skillset is good enough that he really doesn't have to worry too much about his next job and whether he has one "lined up and signed".

Funny thing is that all the jobs above that you scoff at his chances of landing pay multi-millions of dollars...and get this they are requesting interviews with him.

The Bills made the playoffs?
 
He is a terrible judge of talent. He was a terrible recruiter at SU. On top of that he's proven to be a terrible person too. I expect he will not get a head coaching job this year or any year. If an NFL team hired him they ar making a mistake.

Good thing that in the NFL you don't have to recruit, you just pay guys you already know can play more to get them on your team. Pretty simple. Terrible judge of talent? Where did you get that from?

Sorry, meant winning record and should have said 2004, got excited my wife is a Bills fan.

Fixed it...should probably lay off the wine this early on a Sunday.

Kyle Orton isn't a "real" quarterback? What do you consider a "real" quarterback, then?

Jim Schwartz, a very talented defensive roster having a freakishly healthy season, and the Patriots having already clinched the #1 seed before the season finale got them to a "winning" record. How many times do we have to explain this?

Lol, Kyle Orton was a backup in Dallas and was brought in to be the backup in Buffalo to EJ Manuel but as bad as he was he still beat out EJ Manuel for the job in week 5. That = Not a real quaterback but not in the sense that he was imaginary, just bad.

Were you thinking of another Kyle Orton by chance or the one I described above? The one that was so "real" replaced by Tim Tebow in Denver...

Marrone hired Schwartz, lets not forget so he gets credit for what happened with the defense. It isn't a detraction from his tenure.
 
If Doug Marrone gets the NYG job the Francesa show the next day from 1-6 becomes L-E-G-E-N-D-A-R-Y. Between Francesa's rant, the callers it will be gold.

I can't imagine the NYG fanbase if Doug Marrone is hired. It is almost too good it can't even happen.

Lol, a few teams including the Jets were begging Orton to come out of retirement last summer - even when Fitzpatrick was already on the team. He's a seasoned veteran who had many good seasons in the league and there's a reason Marrone quit immediately after Orton surprised him with his retirement announcement.
 
The Giants job isn't an ideal job. You have a GM on his last legs and on a very hot seat. So if the Giants have a poor 2016 then they fire the GM next year this time, you will have a head coach working for a GM who didn't hire him. His stay in NY could be short.

Yes, agreed, a few teams that actually had worse quarterbacks than the Bills wanted Kyle Orton including the Jets. A seasoned veteran that got beat out 3 years before by Tim Tebow who can barely throw a pass.

I am sure Marrone quit because he had tied his HC career in Buffalo to Kyle Orton. And the reason that Marrone wanted the Bills job and took it had to be because there was such good QB play there. Delusional.

If he is so good, why isn't he in the league now? And why was he only with each team 3 years or less, because he was so desirable they wouldnt give him a long term deal? Most teams don't let good QB's go.

Career history

It's never too early on Sunday, or any day! ;)

He's not on his last legs, his job is now like every other GMs, he's got 3 years.

He will be judged on the draft, 2 down...3 to go.

Marrone, to the Giants would be sad sad day for Giants fans, but a great day/week/month/year for the radio is right, alsacs.

For what seems like the 1,000,000,000,000 time...what shlitty year to fire TC.

The freakin quitter finished 3rd in Miami they say, how is he a candidate here??

Eh, Rex Ryan got them to 8-8 with a worse defense and a QB that no one thought could be a QB in this league. Plus it was a season in which all 16 opponents needed a win.

His retirement was a surprise? He only did it once and threatened it before as well.

Rex Ryan went 8-8 but not 9-7 and pretty much lost the locker room and the respect of his players in the process.

You are what your record says you are and Ryan wouldn't have been 8-8 without the groundwork Saint Doug laid. He ruined a defense that was better under Marrone and Schwartz.

A worse defense is his own fault, that's part of the HC job as is how the team performs in all 3 phases.

I don't know where to start.

So I won't.

Please start...

As HC you get credit for and take blame for everything. If you end up 8-8 or 9-7, everything that happens under your watch is your responsibility. Period.

That includes ruining a defense that was better the year before.

Will bet you that Ryan does worse than 8-8 next season.

If Orton wasn't a real quarterback then no teams would have attempted to lure him out of retirement.

He's not in the league now because he doesn't want to play football anymore. He was with multiple teams because he's a journeyman. If you don't consider a veteran journeyman to be a "real quarterback" then you should have said so before as opposed to vomiting on your keyboard.
His retirement was a surprise? He only did it once and threatened it before as well.
I wasn't surprised. But Marrone was.

It's a very strong possibility that Marrone would not have quit if Orton had decided to keep playing. That's simply based on the reports of his reaction to Orton's retirement and the fact that he quit shortly after.
 
Please Mara and Trisch HIRE Douglas Marrone. The WFAN gods demand it.
Please I don't ask for much Doug Marrone as the Big Blue HC isn't that much.

Those teams that attempted to lure him out of retirement also may have wanted him as a backup as was the case in Dallas. That doesn't mean he is good, it means that he was wanted as a backup. A veteran journeyman is not a "real quarterback" as in he was not supposed to be a starter and historically has only wont the starting job against garbage or claimed off the waiver wire after the REAL STARTER is injured for the season like what happened in KC.

What you are trying to tell me with the vomit from your keyboard is that Kyle Orton is a good QB and frankly he isn't and his career shows it. That to me says not a "real quarterback".

Being surprised that a guy is retiring, who has retired in the past, doesn't make a good HC quit his job especially when said HC took the job with garbage at QB to start with. Sorry not buying it, can you find me a Marrone quote to the effect of "...damn my journeyman QB that I am hitching my career to, Kyle is gone, I am screwed and throwing in the towel." If you can I will believe you.
