It's the way of life in the NFL. There's no starting over and working your way back up when you fail in the NFL. You simply jump away from one team and latch on to another. John Fox went 2-14 at Carolina his last season there and was immediately hired by Denver after being fired.

NFL is a cookie cutter league with retread coaches. Fired there....hired here.

I guess we can now confirm Doug Marrone will NOT be invited to next Mensa meeting. Quit his NFL head coaching job with Buffalo because he thought he could get a better job. Then he interviewed multiple times and did not get hired. So he goes to the Jags has assistant head coach/OL coach. He must be a horrible interview or wanted too much money. Maybe this will rein in his ego and help him later in life. The Jags, my God he must have been desperate. That or he thinks he will get the job when the current head coach is fired next year. But, the Jags!!!

I never quit a job I had and knew I could keep before I had another and better job lined up. But the NFL does tend to hire other team's rejects and failures.

He must have been really unhappy in Buffalo.

As far as the NFL coaches getting constantly retreaded, this is my theory.  Almost all of these owners are CEO's of large corporations outside of their NFL hobby.  CEO/board rooms tend to be "clubs" of good ole boys.  You appoint me to your board, I'll appoint you to mine, and together we will defraud the shareholders.

The owners simply apply this same mentality to the coaches.  In their minds, being an NFL coach is a very exclusive club of folks whose "poop doesn't stink".  Given that it's such a select elite group (like themselves, of course) it's no surprise that they constantly retread the coaches.

These guys are clearly a highly evolved form of life, much better than the rest of us mere slobs.  Just look at Rex Ryan and you will see what I mean.

Two things wrong with Buffalo NY.

1. It's in New York

2. It's upper New York that gets 20 foot of snow every Winter.

Doug might be smarter than we are giving him credit for.  :nod:
