    I think a coach has only so many opportunities to be a HC. This is why coaches are turning us down because they do not believe they can turn the team around with the way it is. Now throw in the recent turmoil with Ireland and the front office, including what I will call a coup to get rid of Ireland because he was a threat to Philbin and Company, including the cap issues we may or may not have in the near future and you have the makings of a very difficult situation.

    ? what happens when the new head coach wants quality linebackers or linemen and he gets subpar athletes due to not having the money to bring in quality LB's or quality linemen.

    ? Would you put yourself on the line like that if you knew you had 3 chances maybe in your career. You might if you were a first timer and ignorant to what it is going to really take to turn this team around. Probably not as willing if it's your 2nd or 3rd. I would hold out for the right gig

    **** Parcells saw the writing on the wall and bolted. I for one don't blame him. Same with Saban when they passed on Drew Brees..........

    I will go out on a limb and say this franchise will have a no name or first time new HC. Most likly due to the writing that is clearly on the wall for all to see. They will offer it to this type of candidate because they will be terrified of a repeat of last time. When guys start denying the offer's it tends to be a snowball effect.........with or without Tannenbaum. Throw in the loss of Possibly being the GM or having a role in the hiring of the GM when the opportunity exsisted just last week is a dumb move in my opinion. Why not leave that door open to attract the new HC?

    The only retreads I can think of are JJ and Wannstedt and they had 5 playoff appearances in 9 years, That's much better than the 1 the 1st time coaches have had in the past 11 years.

    Just one thought now that I have read about Gase scheduling another meeting.

    ? are the dolphins possibly offering the job to Gase because he showed the most interest and because they want to avoid embarrassment of being turned dwn by others they might offer to such as Shannahan or Coughlin (if they interviewed him) or are they offering it to Gase because he is the best fit and best chance at success

    About a week ago it was reported that Gase was the favorite, before the Shanahan interview and before Coughlin became available. I think they really want him.

    Rumor was Gase & SF didn't work last year because he wanted his own DC ...right ? Doesn't make sense if he's supposedly the guy who works well with everyone. Now he's agreeing to have Campbell looking over his shoulder ?

    I think there is a big difference between working well with other coaches and tying your fate to a pre-chosen DC that may or may not have differing philosophical ideas than you. I'd also assume that Gase would have to trust Tomsula's choices of defensive staff as well or otherwise force him to work with his guys.

    That said, Jim Tomsula and Adam Gase were on the same staff in 2008 with the 49ers (Tomsula coaching the defensive line and Gase as an offensive assistant). Maybe they worked well together, maybe they didn't, maybe Gase saw something in his coaching that he thought contributed to the 30 sacks they had that year and wouldn't want him running the defense. Who knows.

    Keeping campbell on the staff is a bad idea imo either have to go all in on this guy or look somewhere else, this just already splits the locker room imo.

    Exactly! Why is Gase at the top? What has he done? I think that non eof the experienced coaches want the job because of Ross.

    Lol, oh yeah, Gase will talk Ross into a big contract. I sometimes think that Ross is secretly a Patriots fan.

    Twitter saying it was cancelled. Seems Hue Jackson is almost a given to the 49ners.

    It's quite well known he's a jet fan. Tried to buy them first got beaten out by woody Johnson.

    Dolphins were his "eh I guess" hobby.

    Supposedly Ross was a Dolphins fan as a kid when he went to school in Miami. As in, in the 60s, before we were even relevant. We all know he's a true and true New Yorker and is a Jets fan first. I really hate how he's turned us into Jets South. I'm disgusted with his ownership, he's screwed this team worse than Wanny.

    I'm not trying to convince anyone Gase is the right guy (because I'm not sure myself), but I'm wondering what are the specific things people are looking for in a HC that they feel Gase doesn't have?

    How about a coach whose shown actual results? You know, a guy who can't take credit for having a HOF QB who didn't need an OC. Even Cutler and the Bears offense barely improved from previous years.

    Mike Shula, Hue Jackson types. Guys that have good results. Shula would've been perfect for us, not just in name, but he directed Carolina's offense to having a great year despite little if any playmakers besides Newton. They ran the ball. Played guys according to their strengths. That's impressive. Jackson helped Dalton have an All-Pro year before he got hurt. Results.

    Show me what Gase has done. Cause I can't think of any. We hired a puppet with virtually the same resume as Philbin with even less experience as him.

    Since I prefer a new head coach which has previous head coaching experience, that is the one big thing I have against this possible hiring.

    I also don't see what he did this year with the Bears that shows he is ready to be a head coach in the NFL. The Bears offense really wasn't any better than the Dolphins and they ended up with the same 6-10 record the Dolphins did.

    I prefer an older, more experienced head coach over someone who learned more from Peyton Manning than Manning learned from him. No matter what Manning may have said about him.

    I fear this hire would only be made because Tannebaum would prefer a head coach with no previous head coaching experience, because it would be easier to control this type head coach. I don't trust Tannebaum and therefore this makes me dubious of any head coach he hires.

    Especially when it appears they made no real effort to go after a much more qualified candidate like Hue Jackson.

    Hopefully it will work out if Gase is hired, but I think it is more likely he will have the same type of success as the last five first time NFL head coaches this team hired, which was not much.

    100% agree! I have a feeling that Miami will be searching for another coach in 3 to 4 years. I think that they should have brought in an experienced coach and kept DC as the assistant. Shanahan and TC are both available or even Hue. But maybe none of those coaches wanted to deal with Tannebaum.

    Coordinator success has very little to do with being a HC.

    This!!! Gase hasn't done anything! He is one of the luckiest coordinators to have had Peyton Manning land on his team. Maybe Peyton taught him a few things.

    Again, I'm not saying Gase is great or anything, but let's also be a little honest about Peyton's abilities when he came to the Broncos. He wasn't the same QB he was. That offense did break some records scoring. Gase did make Tebow respectable as his QB coach, and he did help improve Cutler (who is basically uncoachable). He also was given a pretty big break by Saban at an early age which is not nothing. He also helped Kitna have his record year. He also learned offense from Mike Martz. And again, he was one of Dan Campbell's coaches in Detroit.

    I'm not saying this all adds up to him being great or even good, but your characterization of him isn't entirely accurate.

    In 3 years let's see if you feel this way. Hiring Gase is a mistake. Shanahan, TC or Hue would have been a better pick. I have a feeling that they either didn't want the job or wanted more control that they would have been given.

    You're giving credit where none is due, Manning was Manning, in no way was he a different QB, he was just on a loaded team, he was also running the same offense that HE brought from Indy, Tebow was Tebow, he was the same QB he was in college, that doesn't really work at this level, he was on a stacked team, and by the way, had a 72 rating so..., and Cutlers rating went up slightly, which he gives credit to his sports shrink for, either way, it wasn't much of an improvement and it was only 1 year, and what record year was he responsible for with Kitna? who had the same season the year prior to Gase becoming his QB coach.

    Gase has taken the Obama route, he's done nothing to get where he is.

    Yes Head coaching experience. The learning on the job should be at a different team. There are so many moving parts that need to be put in place and When Gace gets here he will most likely keep most of what is already here. Until we blow up the culture that is already here it will be a long road ahead. That includes everyone IMO
