Blow it up! Fire goddamn everyone! This team needs a complete rebuild.

 

Just sell the team Ross or move it New Mexico! We deserve better!!

 

its almost as if this team has just about 0 talent on each side of the ball. you dont say. we're bad? no way!!!

 

Yup, it starts at the top!

 

TBum needs to be fired ASAP

 

“sell the house. sell the car. sell the kids. Find someone else. Forget it. I’m never coming back. Forget it.”

Apocalypse Now

 

I’m going to troll Ross.

 

This season has shown gase to be a farce. He looks like an amateur with no head coaching experience and very limitted experience overall, which is Exactly what he is.

What we have needed here for years is a proven coach who knows how to win. When Shula came here he had already proven himself in Indy, same with Jimmy Johnson.

Ever since Jimmy left we have been cycling through inexperienced and unknown amateurs with no head coaching credentials. It's no wonder we have sucked ever since.

Owners and general managers have been clueless idiots as well.

 

I would give Harbaugh a blank check.

 

Well.. Gase has certainly looked clueless in a bunch of games this year. Not a good sign. And this loss is absolutely embarrassing. Nevertheless, this loss was expected let's not forget that. I'll still wait to see how the rest of the season plays out before passing judgment.

 

Such a dumb sentiment. Pretty much all the owners are clueless idiots when it comes to football.

Ross spends money and doesn't insert himself into the game or player decisions. That is literally the only thing we want in an owner. Just stop.

 

Look how good Dallas has been since Jerry Jones got himself a real GM and stopped pretending to be one himself.

 

The problem he listens to idiots. And doesn't know how to hire.

Rule 101 of hiring anybody in any area is past results and experience. He keeps hiring idiots like tbaum and previous coaches with no track record of success.

 

The problem with Ross is that he sticks with people for too long... Philbin is a great example. Tannebaum should have been fired.

 

That would be awesome!

 

Seriously, wtf does Tannebaum have on Ross. How does this bum this have a job. It’s like this **** keeps failing up.

 

Seriously!

I get that people don't like the people Ross hired, but that's not a reason to demand an owner sell a team (as if that means something). I mean, what do you want? A new owner of the San Antonio Dolphins? A cheapskate who'd rather pocket a few bucks than get a middling FA? Or! OR!!! Literal criminal Jimmy Haslem!

I get the Gase hate, the team is in a bad spot right now. Not midseason firing bad, but the needle for an end of season firing is moving heavier each loss. But the owner? It's bizarre.

 

Disagree on the past results part...past results are not a good predictor of future performance. Especially in pro sports where talent and circumstances matter.

 

Jesus, this team is not wrapping up. Basic fundamentals. Burke needs to drill down on these guys this week.

 

Oklahoma drills anyone?

 

Im not watching this game again, but Tankersly put in some good effort.

 

lol, god you dolphins fans are just beyond clueless. acting like we have any kind of contender type talent when this team is god awful on both sides of the ball.

 

But according to the *** kissers on here tj mcdonald was going to save the defense. Heck we have him a brand new contract without even playing a down. Turns out he ain't that good. Which should not have been surprising since he wasn't that good with the rams either. Just leave it up to tbaum to ignore logic and give extensions to oberhyped players like branch, kiko and McDonald.

 

Providing ample opportunity to succeed is not a bad thing dude. Being a knee-jerk fire at the first sign of something bad is the bad thing. That's how you end up with Cleveland. Say what you want about us, we ain't ****ing Cleveland.

 

Yes it is. It's actually the best predictor. It's not the only factor, but definitely one of the most important.

 

Tannebum hahaha

I’m amazed how this guy still has a job

 

Cleveland actually has a better offense than us. I’m actually glad we aren’t playing Cleveland this year...they might beat us.

 

Maybe in certain professions but definitely not in pro sports.

 

Well, thank god you aren't in charge of hiring and firing anywhere.

I've hired, and worked with many people who've had "issues" in the past and guess what happened? They've learned from their mistakes and become good performers.

Now, while that's not true in every case, believe it or not, there's plenty of people who are more successful their second time around after a failure.

Case in point... Bill Belichick.

Pete Carrol.

There's plenty more really... especially in the world of sports.

 

Can’t really make a decision on one game in a new defense for T.J. The whole team played like ****, I can’t kill one player who is playing his first game of the year.

 

It's ****ing Cleveland. A few better stats is meaningless. THAT is a rotten top to bottom outfit. Colts are another great example. If you want a look at a bad owner, Jimmy Haslem and Jim Irsay are way way way up there. Nothing quite like suggesting your franchise QB's injury is just in his head while you bury yourself in a pile of pills lol.

Seriously, Ross isn't a football genius, none of the owners are. Jerry Jones tried so hard, God bless his little soul, and ran his team into the ground. They just sign checks.

Call for Tanny, Grier, Gase, etc ... but calling for Ross is a bad idea. You could be sooooooooooooooo much worse in a heartbeat, and unlike a ****ty GM/Coach, you can't fire an owner.

 

One of the few. Too many fat cats and soft patsy’s.

 

The failure of any organization starts at the top. It’s Ross’s job to hire the right people. Yet he listens to ESPN and goes with whoever they are hyping up. He clearly doesn’t have the balls to fire Tannebaum which needs to happen now. And if he where to fire him, he would probably just promote someone Tannebaum groomed.

 

Yup. Too many guys, for too many years, for too many head coaches who have been here on vacation, rather than here to work. I applaud Gase for at least trying to call them out, and weed them out in his short time here. I think the problem though, the inmates run the asylum here, they always have. That's been the culture. It's Miami. Yeah... we're here to work, but man... what a great life we have down here huh?

Nobody has ever taken a hard line stance on the players in this organization. Not in the last 10+ years anyways. You can knock Gase for his playcalling, and offense, and press conferences all you want, but the only way you're going to fix this mess we have on our hands is to have a guy working like him, or similar to the devil in NE. If you REALLY want to change the culture, you're going to have to make a mess, and piss off alot of people first, or you're going to have to get really lucky, catch lightning in a bottle and win a pile of games and a title to solidify it. Not every team gets to do that like NE did.

I strongly believe, that until either Gase's plan of playing hardball with these guys takes root, or until you get that rookie QB that gets you to the promised land ASAP and gets everyone to buy in, this is the uphill battle you'll have, especially here in Miami. Too many guys here taking it easy.

Sadly though, in this business it's hard to be taken seriously, unless you're winning. Throw a beautiful climate into the mix, you've really got an uphill battle.

 

The one responsibility of each NFL owner is to hire the right individuals to ensure they have a successful football team. In this regards, Ross has proven to be a complete failure.

When you are a billionaire, spending money comes very easily. Unfortunately he constantly spends his money on front office personnel, coaches, and players who are mediocre at best and in many cases not qualified at all for the positions they were hired to fill.
