    Dolphins special teams coordinator Darren Rizzi is the only assistant expected to remain in the organization, inside sources tell the Palm Beach Post.

    No other assistant has been asked to remain in the organization.

    The biggest question mark was whether new coach Adam Gase would retain interim coach Dan Campbell.

    However, sources say Campbell is making the easy decision easy for Gase.

    Campbell wants to move on and will almost certainly leave.

    It would be difficult to not bet the top dawg with the Dolphins at this point for Campbell.

    He didn't get the job, but leaving and not accepting that he needs more seasoning wherever he goes is an error on his part. If he's going to go anywhere else, it better be with hat in hand and ready to learn what he doesn't know at this point.

    The dude hired is same age and younger and never been a head coach. Campbell actually has more experience then the guy hired.

    It's unknown how Gase will run a locker room, but Campbell certainly didnt get it right.

    Gase has been a coordinator, Campbell has not. I like Campbell and would like to see him stay, but you can't blame him or Gase if he leaves.

    But having had the title for twelve games doesn't mean he's any better than the next guy. I mean, right? I wish Campbell the best, but to be honest, I don't even know what we lost other than a guy that the players really liked. If someone can tell me what we lost, I'm all ears, no joke.

    How can you make that statement? Based on what exactly? The players all seemed to love him and continued to play hard for him.

    so? Cam was an OC too, and a dang good one, but he didn't pan out so well.

    No, I don't know, yet. I'm saying I don't understand the complaint that Campbell would have been better (not from you, personally).

    If Campbell goes, than I'm fine with it. I'm very interested, as we all are, as to who's Gase's assistants will be, but when Gase became the OC in Denver, Julius Thomas went from a guy who had caught one pass for five yards in two seasons (9 games played), to one who caught over 100 total passes and 24 TDs the next two. Chicago's TEs combined to catch almost 90 passes for almost 900 yards and 8 TD last season, so Gase seems to have an offense thats very TE friendly.

    I'm not sure leaving isn't better just because we're talking about Miami. Since when in staying in Miami good for a coach or player's career, lol?

    Gase has a lot more coaching experience than DC. Gase was a coach for the Lions when DC was a player for the Lions.

    I dont think Campbell will ever develop into a head coach that has the Xs and Os intellect. He would delegate that responsibility to the coordinators and lesd the team he is coaching through motivation and accountability.

    There are actully very few Xs and Os head coaches in the league - the ones with their own playbook and calls plays.

    Andy Reid, Adam Gase, Mike McCoy, John Harbaugh and the best one out there is Mike McCarthy.

    I really don't see what Campbell brings to the table. As TE coach our TEs were average at best. Couple that with some very questionable coaching decisions and I don't think we are losing anything.

    bye, i'll miss your "dedication to win" but punting on 4th down with the game in reach and knowing your offense won't get the ball back. I'll also miss your "dedication" to the run, which lasted all of 2 games out of 11.

    Based on undisciplined play, an undisciplined locker room, bad personnel decisions, and other issues.

    No, Cam didn't call the plays, he just helped with the game plan

    I'm a little surprised campbell thinks do highly of himself. The SD and IND games were not games we should have lost. You don't need to look any further than those two to gauge campbell as a Hc. (As of right now)

    One noticeable change from philbin to campbell was the crazy increase of PF calls
