Saint Dougie...

I love the kid. But he wasn't a D-1 QB. Even in the watered down Big East. Marrone is a good coach. It's okay to admit that he and his staff were lousy recruiters.
A lot of people say Blake Bortles isn't an NFL QB, but Doug is going to win a Superbowl with him.

Let's let them make the playoffs first before we start crowning them.

And I don't think anyone says Bortles is not an NFL QB, because he is. The argument may be how good he is, but if he's there, he's an NFL QB. Heck, Cody Kessler is an NFL QB.
 
After you put all your eggs in the Macdonald basket you should stay quite and defer to your betters.

Let me know when you've been right about anything.
The sad thing you don't realize is that I do defer to my betters.

Wait for it.

Yup.
 
Heehee - I knew that comment would get a response but didn’t think it would be this good.

I wouldn’t be unhappy if my Bears grabbed Marrone after they kick Fox to the curb. I’m not positive that his next stop is going to be successful though. I also don’t think Trubisky is the future, so he alone is going to help whoever the next coach is get fired.
 
Bortles makes a lot of mistakes.
Doug is fixing him. Bortles really needs a no.1 receiver, which he lost when Robinson got injured in game 1. They need to cut Marquise Lee.
 
couscuse is trolling, there's no way he's real
Doug got Orton to stop being a turnover machine at Buffalo, which was really something to see. So, I think he could rebuild BB5's confidence but the J'ville fans won't let up on him even though he lost an elite receiver that would make any QB more relaxed and confident. Wish they could have gotten Hogan, bot Belichek has him locked up.
 
Dougie could win the Super Bowl and the idiots here would still be saying he's not a good coach. Get over it.

St. Doug's got a great defense that he inherited but the other teams that game manged to a SB title (Ravens x2, Bucs, Broncos) had QB's that were at least serviceable and could make a throw once in a while. Bortles is nowhere near Dilfer, Flacco, Johnson, and Manning's level.
 
Marrone haters hate one thing that they can't deny, he hasn't left anywhere with a losing record and that IS in fact saying something given the programs he's been tasked with taking over.

Haters gonna hate but they look whiny fools. Face it, he got us to a bowl game in year 2 after Grob, doesn't even look like mr. flash dino is going to accomplish that after Shafer and if anyone here is going to try to say that Shafer left the program in worse shape than Grob then you should self-ban yourself....for eternity.

Did you just claim that Dilfer was a serviceable QB? Check his career TD-Int ratio. Dilfer was trash and probably the worst QB in the history of the league to win a SB. Dilfer is the anti-Marino.

Yep I see no difference between the level of competition in the ACC and Big East. They are identical :rolleyes:. Doug's a good coach but I still think Dino has the higher ceiling in a much tougher conference than Doug coached in.
 
I don't know why we are weighing Doug vs. Dino. Why not bring in Coach Mac or Ben? What's Buck O'Neill going these days?
 
Doug for the Bills is going to be like Belichek for the Browns.

My dream scenario is that Douglas makes the Super Bowl and loses so that I can then say that Marrone can't win the big one.

Amazing that is exactly what folks said when he was in Buffalo...He inherited a great defense and had a serviceable QB and offense.

Pretty remarkable that he inherited both of those exact same things when he went to Jacksonville when they didn't have them in either case before he got there.

Must be coincidence. What was Buffalo's defensive ranking before he arrived and after. What was Jacksonville's defensive ranking before he arrived and now. They improved under his leadership in both places. Wonder why and how that happened.

Couldn't be that he made good decisions and maybe changed personnel and also hired the right people. Nah.
