The only thing really disconcerting about Marrone leaving the Saints is just in the way Saints fans really didn't even seem to notice or care. Here's some thoughts from the Saints' blog Canal Street Chronicles:
I am happy for you guys. I hope Marrone was the guy you really wanted. The feeling I get among Saints fans is indifference. They don't feel the loss will affect their team too much. A lot of that is due in large part because head coach Sean Payton also comes from the offensive school, calls all the plays and has a heavy influence on that side of the ball. Marrone did a good job with the offensive line here in New Orleans and they are among the best in the league while protecting Drew Brees. All in all though, I don't think we ever really got to know Marrone very well.
