The #Jets no doubt saw the Marrone news coming. They interviewed assistant Anthony Lynn today, fulfilling the Rooney Rule. They can hire.

How much media can be in Bufflao?

LOL

Yeah that's what worries me. If he was having problems in Buffalo with two guys, the NY media looks like they are already sharpening their claws.

The only reason I would be ok with this hire is because he did make the Bills a much better team. Of course having a decent QB helps, but he has experience in the AFCE. I still want Quinn, but he might not be available for a month or so. I will take Marrone.

He moves to the top of my list simply because he has HC experience. I do not want another rookie coach. No more on the job training!

Not hating on the guy, but he is 15-17 with Buffalo, 25-25 with Syracuse.

This is not a super star HC who has broken loose. Have no problem with the Jets interviewing him, but I really don't want them to rush out and hire him before they even talk to a GM candidate.

Doug Marrone has ally in Jets' organization

Former Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone, suddenly a coaching free agent, has an ally in the New York Jets' organization -- newly hired consultant Charley Casserly.

Someone who knows Casserly, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Casserly has been raving about Marrone since he was the Syracuse coach (2009-2012). Even then, Casserly was describing Marrone as a future NFL head coach, a rising star in the business.

"He was totally infatuated with him," the person said. "You have to know Charley: When he gets on something, he's a pit bull. I know he's got Woody (Johnson) all lathered up."

Johnson is familiar with Marrone, who was the Jets' offensive-line coach from 2002 to 2005.

This much we know: The Jets are interested in Marrone, who opted out of his Buffalo contract Wednesday night, and they will try to schedule an interview, if they haven't done so already.

Casserly and Ron Wolf, both former longtime general managers in the NFL, are working as consultants for the Jets. They've already conducted one interview (Jets running backs coach Anthony Lynn), and they have at least two more scheduled, both with Seattle Seahawks assistants -- defensive coordinator Dan Quinn and offensive-line coach Tom Cable. Those interviews will happen Friday, and perhaps Saturday, in Seattle.
