So glad we got that awesome head start on the coaches by firing Sparano.
Seems like every team has a new coach EXCEPT for Miami. Even Sparano found a job. Great job there… BONEHEAD!
You can't get a head start on a coaching position.
You aren’t allowed to start interviewing for head coaches until the Monday after the final week of the year. Gues what Miami did on that Monday? Interviewed Bowles. Guess what they did on Tuesday? Interviewed Fisher.
Seems like, while other teams were firing coaches on Monday and Tuesday, we were doing alright.
Now, Fisher is out, we still have 5 candidates already interviewed, and another scheduled for tomorrow. We’re okay. I promise.

Hope they intervew Chudz
That will make my weekend
I will see the Dolphins win a SUPER BOWL before i die(Quarter of a Century and counting)
We were basically turned down by the big 3...
Cowher, Gruden, Fisher… I don’t think you can discredit the perception they have of the team ownership and how they treated their former coach. We’ll probably never know if things would have turned out differently had they let Sparano finish the season, but hey, now we are at risk of losing Bowles too. Awesome!
how about steve spurrier
he worked out great for another crazy owner
The NFL as a whole was turned down by Cowher and Gruden.
Not just Miami.

If Ross wants to create a stir he should hire Billick, Nobody is talking to the guy but Billick should be able to turn this roster into a winner within 2 seasons max and then he, Ross, and Ireland can laugh at everyone that left Billick alone.
Not to mention make fun of Fisher for having another playoff-less season out west.

Billick really deserves a shot
and Ireland doesn’t seem to have any other coaching friends but I think he is a Parcells guy. I wonder who billick would bring in as GM.
Wow, for the 100th time. Ross and Billick do NOT, thats NOT get along. This is NOT going to happen.

oh come on
They play in a crappy division got into the playoffs at 8-8. Big Ben was still obviously hurt an ineffective, and the Broncos D is nasty when it shows up. Tebow isn’t that great. He is averaging 19 points a game since starting with a margin of victory of 5 points much means on average wins it is 19-14. Be realistic. On his average losses are by 17.5 points. Sure he is winning some games, but come on Mosul.
It’s almost like Miami’s wildcat. Great for a year, sputtered in year two and was figured out and demolished in year three. Same thing will happen to the Broncos offense.

true
Look at Miami’s season when they lost all of those games by 4 points or less and we finished 7-9. Is that an indicator on how poor our team was? Did the league just figure out the wildcat (year 3) Or is it an indicator of how close we were to finishing 11-5 and making the playoffs? The same thing will happen with Tebow in year 3.
Back to the main point,
I’d prefer a creative coach, but I don’t think Chip Kelly is it.

RIGHT!
Just because something is used in college (spread) doesn’t mean it won’t with in the NFL (wildcat). Put a professional spin on it. Expand the options to make it more complex and specialized to your team makeup. A gimmick is only a gimmick if you can’t learn to incorporate it into your own style fully.

Marty Schottenheimer gets my vote.
The guy can still coach.
Sadly, Ross has put all his eggs in Ireland’s basket. We’re going to be stuck with a new coach as long as he has given the reins to Ireland. And I have nothing personal against Ireland. He just hasn’t proven anything to be worthy of being put in charge of this franchise.
It confuses me why so many people want Philbin. First, he didn’t even call te plays in Green Bay. Second, we already went with an Offensive Coordinator, first time Head Coach in Cam Cameron. that didn’t end well. If we do that again we set this franchise back another 3 or 4 years.
Get someone who has run a team before. I’d be happy with Billick, but that isn’t happening, since its pretty clear that Ross has a grudge against him.
My hunch was Fisher was going to the Rams the whole time. And if Ross & Ireland screw-up this hire, it will take years to recover.
But he looks like a shirt pulled out of a coke bottle...

Totally agree!
The reason Fisher chose the Rams over the Fins is pretty apparent. It’s the need to win immediately. The Rams can be 5-11 next year and it won’t seem like a failure to fans because of the lack of talent.
We on the other hand, have a team that has a lot of promising young players. If Fisher couldn’t get at least a winning season he would be seen as a failure. Schotty wins games, at least in the regular season if nothing else.

I'd be happy with Billick
BUT……….the team played well under Bowles (2-1) and he’s highly thought of as a coach. Maybe he should get a shot? He knows the personnel already and they respect him. Who knows. Maybe Bowles could become the young Don Shula Ross (and Dolfans) is dreaming of
Bowles would be my 2nd choice, behind Shotty.
My thought is seek out the experienced coach who is a consistent winner. If we have to choose a coordinator for HC, get the one who is most familiar with our talent.
by mjams on Jan 13, 2012 5:53 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Yeah, I'm cool with Bowles.
I think he’s highly reguarded and continutity is a big part.
The only big thing to change would be the DC, as Nolan is set on leaving….

I don't think I really have a top choice...
Toub, Carmichael, Chud, Zimmer, Moss…I’d be happy with any of those guys. Just wondering if Toub or Zimmer could develop a QB.
You know ... as much as I was not thrilled about Jeff Fisher..
He would have been a Solid choice for head coach. What really bothers me about this whole thing though is not that we miss out on him.. but WE WENT ALL IN on this guy… and in the end he decides to go to the Rams. A 2-14 team beats us out that is a complete mess outside having a QB… and who will probably move to LA soon… I can’t believe it… we are the Detroit Lions….

Location, Location, Location...
Harbaugh is from California, Fisher is from the mid-west…
Look, I think missing out on Fisher could be the best thing to happen...
Even the greatest coaches were “nobody” before they were “somebody”… we all need to freaking chill out and quit saying that we missed out on a great coach. The guy got a team to the Superbowl once and LOST. Some say he was OUT COACHED. All I’m saying is give one of the other candidates a shot. You can’t seriously think that some super coach is going to come waltzing into Miami and take the Dolphins to the promise land…. That’s just absurd !

Coaching matters in the NFL. Despite what you think of Fisher, he was going to bring a top flight staff.
The question about whoever the Phins hire, will they be able to bring in a top flight staff? Part of the issue with Cam Cameron and Tony Sparano is that the position coaches (and coordinators in some respects) weren’t very good. That affects the team. That also could be a reason both failed.
That wouldn’t have been a problem with Fisher.

I like Mike McCoy
He could be that “young Don Shula” that Ross was talking about

i would like to see
bowles….and if not him zimmer. marty wouldn’t be bad, but he might want to bring his son and well we have seen his shitty play callin!
New Coach
Come on guys! Let’s get Chip Kelly in here! He is one of the best football minds around right now and he would definitely keep Nolan as DC. They are both Oregon Ducks! Everybody wants to see how great this offense could be. Get Chip, move up in the draft and get RG3, and reap the rewards. I have never seen a college coach do so much with so little. He really could be the next Don Shula. We just can’t let another NFL team discover that first.
I don’t want another OC or DC using our team to waste the next 3 years on his own career. If we are going to replace Sparano, let’s go all in!!!!! Make a splash Ross!
Qb's the key
We need a Great QB I think Flynn has that potential over any of the college prospects that we may be able to draft. Get Flynn then build to suit him, and definitely get an offence minded coach our D is almost completely set up already!!!

Im happy Fisher went to the Rams. Thank god.
Henne needs to step up
B Marshall + B Hartline D Bess = The 2nd comming of The Killer B's MPF 04/17/10
If I took the time to check for errors I would forget what I was trying to say! Deal !
The hunt remains, Aparently it's easer to get a OC then head coach!
wopper "the king" computer
We often look rite past the positive's cuz the negative's-r-so hard they dominate! Have you touched & preened your beaver-pelt yet!
Chyt; cha aint seen the worst tilo youd seen the least - Henne to Marshall compleat two year descreption!

I'm hoping the dolphins get chuck pagano from baltimore. He and nolan would elevate the defense to elite.
I’m also hoping the dolphins keep Daboll and have the offense to continue to improve with him as well as draft RGIII
Stuck with a Moron Owner
Forget about Jeff Fisher for now. Let’s address our real problem…S. Ross.
That is the problem facing many teams in the NFL. Owners, that n=know nothing about the game, and are unwilling to allow real Football Experts to run their team.
What Ross needs to do is step aside and allow someone else to run his team. Be an owner, not a day to day, on hands team manager. There are few owners that understand the game and the business of the game well enough to be involved. Ross is not one of them. We can’t fire him..he is the owner, but we can tell him that he needs to release his grip and let someone else that knows how, to run the team. How do we do this? We don’t buy tickets, we don’t support the team. I am a fan, but I don’t want to suffer anymore with inept owners and issues that have a solution. For the fans to voice their opinion, they need to take a harder stand. I am not turning my back on the players and the Dolphins. I am turning my back on S. Ross, Ireland and the train wreck he has allowed in Miami. Do we have a voice? Of course…we buy tickets and view games and buy merchandize. Express your displeasure without fear. Buy joining a protest against Ross, we send a clear message that , we the Fans, are not happy. Ross needs to step away and let someone else run the team…or sell it!!!!
