    Parcells is expected to meet with Cam today. Do you want Cam to be fired? What do you think Parcells will do with him?

    I don't want Cam fired. Despite everything, Cam and Mueller put together a good, possibly great draft (depending how they do during the upcoming years). His playcalling may be suspect, but he has definitely did some good things here. I hope he stays, but they get an OC so he won't have to be overworked.

    Well Muller was in charge of the draft and Cam is in charge of the plays .... so if the plays are bad but the draft was good Muller shouldnt have been fired and Cam should be fired because his playcalling is suspect. But I think that it would be good to keep him for one more year because he was left over with the players from Saban and Wandy .... so if he doesnt make improvements next year I can see the firing but I think it is necessary to keep him for continuity. And I agree he definitely needs an OC because he cant do both jobs and it showed this season. But no matter what Im still questioning if he is a head coach and not just an offensive coordinator.

    I do recall Cameron saying he was good friends of Ginns family. So even though he might not of been the GM I think he is also repsonsible for the fins terrible season. It was also Cameron that had to have Trent Green and Lemon for his system. I will be happy when Cameron is gone!

    The longer we wait, the more likely Cam will stay.

    Agreed. If we don't here anything by the end of tomorrow, Cam is probably staying. With that said.................COME ON BREAKING NEWS!

    I like Cam and i don't think he got a fair shake but look at the team this whole year. The players have started to revolt against Cam and it's starting to show. The fight on the air plane is a good example of how the it's the players vs. Cam.

    Agree...I think Bill wants to get Ireland sooner than later. I am pretty sure that Parcells can get Ireland before the draft if he shows that Ireland will have total control of the team. If Parcells fires Cameron then it will show that Bill is calling the shots.

    My thinking as well. Whether or not it's true or just a facade as to the GM having total personnel control, Parcells HAS to hire the GM before deciding on a coach to at least give that impression.

    No way Cam gets fired without a coach ready to go, IMO. GM gets hired, feelers go out, if there are any decent "nibbles" Cam gets fired, if not he stays...

    About 4:00PM and no news or talk about the Ireland interview or the meeting with Cameron. Odd.

    People are just overreacting (including rampant media speculation) because Cam hasn't been fired yet. It's freaking Tuesday. Parcells always said a decision on Mueller would be made faster. I think Parcells is waiting to hire a GM before making a decision on Cam. His odds of returning are still very, very slim.

    Well if we want Ireland to be our GM, Jerry Jones won't allow him to be hired until after the draft. By that time all the good coaches will be long gone

    yea I mean he doesn't have to fire him right away . . . . it was more important to settle the GM position first . . . because that person has the most work with preparing for the draft and looking at potential FA's . . . plus that person can also give input into the type of coach he wants in place w/ the players he wants to get . . . we have some time before making the decision on CAM.

    1. Cameron had a players exit meeting on Monday, as in he talked to each player and went over their season, what they did well, and what they improved on. He didn't go out and say good bye to his players.

    2. Ireland will be interviewed today, but that doesn't mean Cam will be gone. A new GM could mean a new HC, but it doesn't guarantee it.

    3. You expect to see the dismissal of Cameron on Wednesday or Thursday? Based on your points, I wouldn't expect him to leave at all.

    Cameron will be back IMO.

    He can't do a thing because Ireland would be getting a promotion, I believe.

    From the Star-Telegram:

    "There was some discrepancy about whether Ireland could immediately leave, or must wait until after the draft. Because Parcells will not have final say in personnel issues, it appears that Ireland could and will leave immediately."

    Based on what? Cam found out Parcells fired Mueller four hours after the fact when told by a low level staffer. He is so far out of the loop, I don't see any scenario that he returns.

    Based on the comments Ireland made, there's no doubt he wants to work with Parcells in Miami. He'd be moving to Miami right now if he could. I think it's a foregone conclusion that Ireland will be our next GM. He's the top guy on Parcells list and Bill really admires his talent

    No. That was the article on Ireland interviewing for the job. I think that Dallas reporter is just speculating on the inevitable like everyone else -- Parcells will offer the job and Ireland will accept.

    Let's be clear, the player on the defence revolted.

    They are also the players who never bought into the Cam regime and with ine or two exceptions have been underperforming the entire year. The defensive coaching staff have been decidedly unimpressive too.

    I can see arguments for Cam going or staying. I can see no argument that says that defence should not be entirely gutted and rebuilt from scratch.

    oh please don't get me wrong CAM is a ok OC
    but a head coach he's avg at best

    you as a FINS, which would you prefer
    Bill finds and sign some 1 of his liking

    or
    Bill allow Cam cam to audition another season
    if Cam is Bill guy then i hope he allow Cam time to mold the team


    PS Cam is the head Coach he's responsible for the whole team not just the offense
    it's his neck that on the line week in and out.....................

    Just because a player or player doesn't buy into a coaches plan doesn't mean the plan is wrong. If they don't want to play in that system just fire the coach right. the coach was hired to install his system if the player won't come on board get rid of them. plain an simple.

    I'm with you on this. When I listen to him speak, I can tell he genuinely wants to win and wants to be a successful Dolphin HC. I really hope we give him at least another year to turn things around with fresh young talent and hopefully all our injured starters back.

    People are too quick to judge. The guy stuck around, didn't quit on us, and gave us his best that he knows how to. I think he has grown as a coach himself.
