Thought we'd be 9-7, still think we will be 9-7. A team that can't control the line on either side of the ball won't make the playoffs.
You may be right...the reason being that this year, Philbin will be able to blame it all on Coyle and blind man Boss Ross buys this BS for 1 more year. However, he had the chance to get rid of Coyle and did not do so. But the truth is, Philbin sucks as bad as Coyle.
Bpk spamming those ridiculous picks of Philbin in threads has me giggling my *** off this morning. Thanks Bpk!
We initially killed his NFL dreams years ago. Because the then incumbent staff either wouldn't/couldn't develop him. I can understand why he wouldn't wanna be here.
Wannstedt hasn't been the HC of the Dolphins for over a decade. None on the players who played under Wannstedt are still on the roster. The owner of the team while Wannstedt was the head coach is no longer the owner now. Even mentioning Wannstedt after he has been gone for so long is absolutely ridiculous. We all know he left the team in shambles after his tenure with the team, but there has been plenty of time and several head coaches since he left and none of them have done anything to rectify the fact that this organization just hasn't moved forward under the present ownership. The fault with this team now lies 100% with the decision made by Ross to hire Philbin and to retain him, even though he had a losing record after three years as the teams HC. Wannstedt is history and he certainly isn't at all responsible for the mess this organization is today.
Reminds me of Charlie from the episode of It's Always Sunny where he wrote the opera and proposed to the Waitress at the end. LMAO
It's that he has meddled in all the most important decisions that cause the problem. I understand why he wants to do it, but he's just not qualified to pick a head coach or GM. He must leave that to Garfinkel & Tannenbaum this next time, or chances are once again we'll have someone not qualified. So far he's batted Zero for.....
We know that, but Ross is making the decision, and will probably stick with him one more year if we go 6-10, 7-9 or 8-8. I think only 5-11 or worse gets him sacked.
He didn't want to come here. Should have done it two seasons ago. People thought last season was a for sure Coyle would be gone, but here we are after only week 2. This is 100% correct. I'd rather give a re-tread like Herm Edwards a go again than keep philbum.
