NFL assistants primed to be head coaches Todd Bowles?

    The improvement of Miami's secondary — especially cornerbacks Will Allen (pictured) and Jason Allen — and the dip in Dallas since his offseason departure may not be coincidence. Bowles spent two seasons on Parcells' Cowboys coaching staff and followed Sparano to Miami.

    Having played defensive back for eight NFL seasons, Bowles does an excellent job interacting with his players. Bowles, who turns 45 next Tuesday, was a finalist for the Cowboys head coaching vacancy that went to Wade Phillips in the 2007 offseason.

    Sure would hate to lose Bowles:no:

    Hopefully it doesn't happen, but if they continue to get better, and play well, he may get some looks at seasons end. We just have to ensure we have coaches working with, and learning from other coaches so if we do lose someone, we can promote from within.

    I hope we don't lose anyone quite yet. We're in the middle of a pretty amazing turn around here; I hope everyone wants to stick around and see it to the end, But it's looking like there may well be a bunch of vacancies after the season. Sparano's success here in Miami gives even more validity to the so -called Parcells coaching tree. So I can see our assts and coordinators garnering some interest.

    I hope that doesnt happen. He's definitely had a huge impact on our secondary this year. Hopefully we can keep him this offseason. It would be nice to have some continuity for once going into next season

    There's quite a couple of assistant coaches that will get a look before Bowles gets one as HC. However, he might garner a lot of interest as DC.

    Just as long as WE aren't looking for a new Head Coach, I really can't get too upset. I'm sure Parcells and Co. will bring in a sufficent replacement for him if he does leave.

    It would be nice to keep this group of coaches together...except for perhaps the STs coaches....but that's how things work...they won't try to hold anyone back from advancement in the coaching ranks...
