I instantly thought that as well- from all the quotes, it almost sounded like Gase wanted to leave.
If we're reading between the lines, Ross tried to talk to him last week, Gase said, "Nope, I'm busy", then Ross said this week that Gase needs to give up control of the roster to keep his job (AKA, they were firing Tannehill). Again, Gase said nope and forced Ross's hand.
Honestly, that's pretty gangster and it makes me like Gase a heck of a lot more. At least he stuck to his beliefs. I have a feeling that looking back, all the *****ing and complaining the past 6 weeks about RT having no help, no protection was taking stabs at the front office for not bringing in better/younger linemen.
i knew Gase wasnt going to give up control of the roster. Why would he? He'll have a new head coaching job before we have a new coach. Good for him telling Ross to fuck off. Ross is clueless. Made the right choice three years ago and panicked because we hit some turbulent weather. I just dont want him going to the Jets. Go to Denver or Cleveland please. Win your rings outside our division. Hopefully they let Tannehill go too. He deserves to be on a real team instead of this clusterfuck of an organization

Ross is clueless yet he hired Gase right?
Seriously do you even read what you write anymore? Do us a favor and follow Gase wherever he ends up ...... and take Tannebot with you.

Ross still doesn’t get it. He’s to loyal for our good. He’s going to force a new coach to work with his guys and not give them what they need to succeed.
Well, I'm not so sure of that. Grier does have a good reputation around the league, and has been responsible in a lot of ways for the last couple drafts that have brought in some good players apparently.
Either way, if you hired a new VP/GM from elsewhere, you're still forcing a new coach to work with him. Either way you're picking someone to fill that role, and find a coach to work with.
I'd have liked to see him interview Grier for the job, as well as some other candidates... that's where the problem is for me here. But, Ross is loyal like that... Grier is respected, has worked his way through the scouting side of the organization over the years and now he's going to finally get his chance to call the shots. It'd be the same if we hired a candidate from outside... However with so many teams looking for head coaches this year, the search has to start ASAP. Can't wait to interview then hire a VP/GM, then move on to coaches. By the time you finish step 1, and move to step 2, the best candidates are going to be long gone.
I'd have liked a complete cleaning of the house, but with the timing of all of this, and us being in contention up until last week, this really likely becomes the best path to follow.

and then panicked if you can read. I realize comprehension isnt your strong suit so no biggie. I will follow Gase and Tannehill wherever they go just as I do other Dolphins that are let go that I like. Pouncey on the Chargers as an example. But dont worry Ill make sure to be here to correct all your mistakes

Ross, in his infinite wisdom will now be looking for a coach, an offensive coordinator, and a QB in a year where all three of those positions are completely devoid of talent.

Burke needs to be next along with tannenbaum. Boys were going to suck for 2 years but this was needed. Let’s give the new coach time to fix issues before we pounce em for losing next season.
Two years? We've sucked for 35 years. You don't break that cycle by changing coaches every 2-3 years. The team will forever be a joke.

:sidelol: i know. I was thinking the same thing. On top of it he gave Grier final say on the roster so any coaching candidate worth his salt isnt even going to be interested. We are going to get the B group of a bad coaching year. Only Miami lol.

Does it really matter though if the core issues were much deeper down as many reports have been saying today? Ross and Gase obviously weren't on good terms and the players fully believed Gase played favorites. Also reports saying that Gase quit on the Dolphins and really didn't want to be here either. Him moping around on the sidelines alone certainly supports these claims. I'd say its more positive to get a guy that will coach the whole team and that wants to be here is a huge step that we need...

Funny that now Gase is fired, everyone in the media is coming out pretending like they know EVERYTHING about the situation. As of last night, nobody knew anything and now they're all positive that there were deep, deep issues and everything was rotten and everyone hated Gase included Ross.
Everyone is now reading into every single little detail thinking they know the story behind every interaction over the past year. Within two hours everyone went from not knowing if Gase would be fired to now having season-long inside scoops about everything. Give. Me. A. Break.
What a bunch of horse ****.

Adam Gase reminds me too much of Lane Kiffin. Excuse making machine. Mopey crybaby on the media.

Not ross. Grier.
Oh I'm glad it's Grier picking. That makes the available candidates WAY better. You're right. I'm sure he'll find the next Shula/Marino this year and we'll win every Super Bowl from here on out.
Amazing how many times we've been through this. Every three years we blow up everything and gut the organization and every time it happens all the fans get excited and think "Oh boy we're going to pick a winner this time." Well we're 0-7 in that department since Shula. But you're right, I'm sure we'll NAIL it this time because Grier is in charge now.
Who are we going to replace Grier with next year?

we had that. His name was Sparano. Then we went with the aloof cold fish of Philbin and unto the brainiac tendencies of Gase. Maybe hire Chris Foerster for head coach. He could give the players free cocaine for every win

What about Gase's tenure here thought he warranted a keep though? I'm genuinely interested, not trolling. What decisions and how the team played really make you believe he was a long term answer?

0-9 if you include Campbell and Wannstedt's DC who's name escapes me at the moment

I don't understand what you want.
According to you we can't hire. So if we fire Grier we actually need to hire someone to do his job.
You realize there is no possible outcome that is positive based on your scenario right?
The one constant is Ross and that really doesn't bode well for the Dolphins.
