[BrAinPaiNt]

Doug Marrone overplayed his hand.

The former Bills coach has been hired as the Jacksonville Jaguars' assistant head coach/offensive line, per John Oehser of the team's official website.


The news comes three weeks after Marrone absconded from Buffalo with a $4 million windfall amid league-wide speculation that multiple head-coaching opportunities awaited.

I don't think he overplayed his hand. He didn't leave with nothing. He got paid $4 million. While there are only 32 head coaching jobs in the NFL, I don't think all of them are great. Living in Buffalo in the winter doesn't sound like a good time.

Who knows, a year to recharge as OL coach in Jacksonville, I am sure there will be better HC jobs after 2015 season, cle, Cin, NYG, Minny, Oak

Best thing we have is outdoor hockey. Good time or no?

Probably a good time, but not enough to overcome an older stadium and a team with no clear cut QB.

I think not having a QB was the bigger issue than living in Buffalo. He's from the Bronx and coached in Cuse, he should be fine in cold weather.

A dope with $4 million. That is a lot of money to get paid without having to deal with the headaches of being a head coach.
