So this means Philbin stays.

 

Business is business and Sherman wasn't getting it done.

 

I have no issues. In a vacuum with perfect players his system is great. Football isn't played in a vacuum. As an OC you need to find a way to enhance your ingredients so that the ingredients you don't have aren't as prominent.

I feel like Sherman was unable to scheme around our flaws and was highly predictable. When I can guess run/pass before the snap based on down and distance you sure as hell know the defense can too.

 

Not enough, especially when we have a HC and GM with issues and we got to somehow get someone credible to be OC?? Good luck getting anyone high profile with this mess.

 

That is sad, because nothing is permanent. Evrn if we become great again...we will inevitably suck again.

In 30 years its quite possible we are telling Patriot fans it doesn't matter what they did in the past, just as we are told that now.

 

dolphins just tweeted it 5 minutes ago

 

Sherman was part of the problem, the whole predictable snap count thing and vanilla playcalling did him in. Hope to God Ireland is next.

 

Sadly ineffectual Ireland looks to be retained

 

Not enough

 

Just got a confirmation on my NFL mobile ap.

 

I hope the new OC has a QB sneak in his playbook.

 

They need to do more house cleaning than just Sherman.

 

I've heard of these two mythical plays called screen passes and draw plays. I hope to encounter them one day.

 

Ild like to see them bring chud in

 

Hopefully this opens the door for Kubiak

 

I agree with this move. Like I posted before I think Sherman more than Ireland is the top weakness and Philbins loyalty to Sherman was holding the team back. On any other team, Lamar Miller would have 600 Yds receiving and 800 yds rushing. Our play design, from the snap count and cadance, to the WRs routes, to the plays called and lack of plays called, are all high school level.

Criticizing Ireland before Jamar Taylor and Dion Jordans development and Wheeler and Elerbees first year in the system is pre mature. Had Patterson held up, we would not have had Carroll in the secondary and that alone would have probably been enough to get us in the playoffs.

 

Let's make another "tweak" thinking it will mean dramatic improvement , we'll bank on that , one more year is all we need , this time next year we'll be preparing for our first game in the playoffs at home , you'll see .....

 

I'm glad Mike Sherman was fired. He was a huge issue.

But, I still have very little faith this is going to work...

From reports, we have a coach that has tension with our GM and he didn't want to fire his mentor. Yet, we have decided to keep both Ireland & Philbin. Again, how in the world can we think this is going to work?

 

I think that wonderful Vince 'strut' gif created by JT is applicable here. I honestly cannot fathom how Ireland appears to have survived an axing.

 

Sherman "removed" as OC....does that leave the possibility of him staying on staff in another capacity. I wouldn't mind it.

 

And Turner?

 

Per the team's page: http://www.miamidolphins.com/news/p...g-Staff-/66367b6e-7e07-42d9-934e-e419639a304f

 

It won't.

 

Very good news. Guy is not an NFL OC.

 

I've posed this question many times, and someone may have posted the answer. If so, I'll be looking for it and I'd appreciate if you have it.

When has a team kept everyone in tact, after losing seasons, only fired an OC and had success?

 

We didn't have a losing season and who said that was the only change coming?

 

Sherman getting the axe is a good start

 

Hilarious if we promoted Jim Turner or Zac Taylor.

Train wreck written all over it if everyone is kept, smh. This move creates even more tension between Philbin and Ireland. Philbin was threatened with his job so he's pretty much a lame duck. Ireland was extended last year and is now a lame duck this year. All parties are doing what ever it takes to saves their own jobs. What respectable offensive coordinator would want to come here with this mess going on.

 

QB sneaks as well....
