In a perfect world if Grier and McDaniel were fired after the season,...

lol...

Yeah, lets bring in a 71 yr old HC that hasn't coached in nearly 20 years.

 

Cowher has himself a nice cushy job as analyst and Billick has been out of the game for FAR too long.

As I said in another thread, Grier is going nowhere. Ross won’t consider firing him unless for some reason the wheels completely come off and we only win some 5 games.

And even THAT wouldn’t be a guarantee.

 

Are you AquaPride in disguise? If not, you two should meet as you are both as mental as each other.

Yes, let's hire 2 guys who are collecting pensions and haven't been in the league for 17 years and 16 years.

Off to the ignore list you go.

 

A wise man once said never go full ret@rd. You're close but not quite there yet. Next time I would suggest getting the band back together by bringing in Jimmy Johnson as our GM with his insane history of drafting HOF defenses and none other than Dan Marino as the HC. Anyone who calls him uncle Dan can GTFO and go play for the USFL. Now stop being silly and get on board with McDaniel & Snoop. There's still hope.

 

Is Marv Levy still alive?

 

This thread is something out of a time capsule of two decades ago.. no thanks..

mcdaniels is safe for at least another season.. grier will be gone and ross will likely give mcdaniels gm control to try to fix the roster his way for one full offseason before making a decision on his future. Assistant gm will move up to process any move mcdaniels will make but mcdaniels will have final say for one full offseasob.

 

If Miami is going to hire an old HC who has been out of the game for a bit, you spelled Belichick wrong.

 

You can't expect people to take that post of yours as anything but trolling surely? How can someone actually suggest we get two pensioners who haven't worked in the league for 17 years (and it's changed a ton in that time) and keep a straight face?

If you actually meant what you posted, I apologise but at the same time I'll basically be skipping over your posts as my mind can't quite understand how anyone could post that and be serious about it.

 

He’s either a troll or stroke victim.

 

You'll be back with a new username. See you soon.

 

There are a number of current GMs I might try to offer a boatload of cash to come to sunny south Florida, but Bill Cowher would not be on my short or long list for GM.

 

The oldest coach in NFL history was Crenell at 73 years old (not 75), and that was a one year stint after "retiring" at 65. We want a coach who can stay here for the long term, like 1-2 decades or more. The oldest I'd go is 60, no older.

And Belichick is out of a job because teams are NOT interested in him.

 

The game has long since passed both of these men by and hiring either of them would be a completely foolish idea IMO.

That being said, unless this team really struggles the rest of the year I don't see McDaniel being fired, but I sure hope Grier is.

That being said if anyone's getting fired I hope it's a full house cleaning this time, not another half measure. I just don't see either happening unless there's a catastrophic end to the season.

Grier has proven his incompetence. McDaniel is starting to show signs of failure as well this year so far, but this team is built to win now (or so they think) and with top players on big deals currently, right now isn't the best time to rebuild again. I think they give both another year unless its catastrophic as i said above.

 

Get rid of Grier? Hell yes! Replace with one of the geriatric suggestions? That's gonna be a no from me.

Get rid of McDaniel? Nope. He deserves at least one season out from under that jackhole to prove his worth. However, I don't think he should be given the GM/HC crown.

 

McD should get a chance with a new GM. In my opinion he’s being shackled by Grier. We should look to yank some “youngster” out of KC, Baltimore, SF, any stable organization. Forget the old geezers.

 

I'm not insulting anyone when I call him a pensioner because that is exactly what he is (in the UK anyway since men become pensioners at 65 currently, rises to 67 and 68 later). He also hasn't coached in 17 years, there is a reason for that. Imagine not working for 17 years and going back into your old profession as if nothing has changed. I'm a software engineer by trade and I can tell you a whole lot has changed in my field in the last 17 years.

If you want someone old, one of the greatest coaches of all time is available right now and he was coaching last year. In case you missed it, no team wanted him this offseason and his teams have sucked for the last few years.

 

Hire Deion Sanders as HC and draft Shedeur Sanders with our 1st rounder. If I’m Ross I would make McDaniel the ball boy. If he's getting paid he might as well work for the money. Plus he has experience. I'm not at all joking. Make him the ball boy.

 

I was huge fan of McDaniel, but his play calling and logic is horrific. I'm ready for him to either be fired or give up play calling. We have the fastest roster in the league and we are calling 5 yard backward pitches, parallel to the line routes, and bubble screens? OMG make it stop!

 

Suck for Sanders?

 

Think I'd rather have Cowher and Billick.

 

GTFO. Deion is noting more than a used car salesman; all style, no substance.

 

Deion may make it work in college by way of recruiting but he is not any kind of quality coach

 

I thought we wanted to actually win and be successful in the NFL, Hm... guess I was wrong.

 

OK let's hire another next big thing genius first time HC since it's worked so well the last 20 years.

 

If you want them to make a rational hire of someone experienced why would you want Deion?

 

That’s maybe, because it’s a little early for that. I don’t see them breaking things up and Ross is probably going to stay put with how things are. As for a coach, if we‘re talking hypothetically, I‘d like Vrabel personally.

 

That's because many fans don't pay a lot of attention to other teams and thus have only a cursory knowledge of potential replacements for coaches, let alone front office/GM. We can all read a list and spout the same names if you want (Klint Kubiak! Bobby Slowik!! Ben Johnson!!!), or dredge up the same fossils people have been talking about for near decades. It's kind of hard to have a serious conversation around the idea of Cowher and Billick (or Deion, jfc) as solutions. Maybe we should just bring Saban back lol.

 

We don't generally talk about those things in the season unless it's regarding an upcoming opponent, a potential trade target, etc. We talk QBs because Tua is out and the replacements have been ... underwhelming, to put it charitably. Regardless, we generally know much more about players than we do about the offensive coordinator of the Rams or Defensive coordinator of the Packers. And fewer still will have any knowledge at all about GM/Front office types.

There is no plausible scenario that sees Bill Cowher come out of retirement to be something he never was and then hire a guy as old as Billick to coach.

Disagree on Mahomes, he took a horrendous line to the Super Bowl, granted they lost that one. However in general the line has been the focal point of our problems outside of Tua being gone. But this team has also had two winning, playoff seasons in a row. It's not like the Tua/McDaniel duo has been bad.

 

Alright, I’ve left this thread alone for the most part. It’s full of emotional rancor, but if I were Stephen Ross, I’m firing Chris Grier.

He presided over the fiasco of Joe Philbin
He presided over the fiasco of Adam Gase
He presided over the fiasco of Brian Flores

Now on his 4th head coach, this season has melted down.

Forget the Tua injury issue, what has Flores done to ensure the Dolphins had a viable backup quarterback? Skylar Thompson, Mike White, Tim Boyle, Tyler Huntley…none of them have worked out one bit. McDaniel has won only 1 game with a backup quarterback.

Our offensive line has been atrocious! Now, while no one really expects a backup quarterback to be just as good as the starter, what everyone does and should expect is the remaining offensive unit to play at the same level for the backup as the starter. But when your offensive line is so weak that your starting quarterback masks the weaknesses of the line, that backup isn’t going to stand a chance. So the same question posed as to what has Grier done to shore up the backup quarterback is poses here…what has Grier done to shore up the offensive line?

It’s time for him to go.

 

He wasn't the GM when Philbin was here
