flyerdog Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 doesn't Doug P. and the Jags make perfect sense? worst team in the NFL, no where to go but up. Young highly touted QB prospect who needs an NFL hand to guide him. Doug is adept at developing young QBs and helping them succeed... Urban Meyer was a nitwit dictator and Doug is a players' coach.... seems to me that the Jags job is a perfect fit for Doug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Procus Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Apparently Steve Ross pre-emptively squelched any Jim Harbaugh to Miami rumors given Ross' connections to Michigan. Odd firing in Miami. Something behind the scenes no doubt precipitated this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolg Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Flores got a raw deal in Miami. He put that trash heap of a team onto the verge of the playoffs the last two years with winning records (10-6 and 9-8). Ross must have a new coach in mind. Otherwise the Dolphins just took a big step backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Vikings ownership was tired of the same old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawkins4prez Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Flores > McDermott. It's close, but not that close. What a ridiculous firing by Miami he was literally the only thing they had going for them rebuild wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LacesOut Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Me thinks Flores will get another NFL HC job right quickly. Surprised by that firing. Zimmer didn't surprise me too much as they always seem to come up small with him as a HC. Agree with eglz1, same old ish from that team/org, so start new, because you already know what you are going to get with Zimmer. Nagy had one good year, but is not a good HC/Leader. OC somewhere, yes. Pains me a little to say that because I saw him play QB at the U of Delaware way back when. And man, can being an NFL HC age a person!! He is like 43 (7 years younger than me) but looks like he is going on 55. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd really just depend on who he brings in Unless he somehow fixed his playcalling during his one year break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really getting tired of the narrative that Reich was this mastermind and Doug was just along for the ride. Reich has made the playoffs 2 out of 4 years in Indy… but he’s 0-1 without Sirianni… Reich needs great coordinators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difference is Reich/Wentz choked against the worst team in the league, from their division, in the game that would have gotten them in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He put together a bunch of great minds that collaborated well together and got a SB. When it split up is when it went south Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were only together for two years. One super bowl year, and one 7 win season. Two years, one with playoffs and one without, is not nearly a big enough sample. My point is that saying Doug needs a good staff is stupid, because all head coaches need a good staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sucked with the guys he had in 2018-2020. His 2017 group seemed to work great off of each other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawkins4prez Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Really weird stories coming out of Miami. Supposedly ownership thought the roster was underachieving? Excuse me? Maybe the worst offensive skill position talent in the entire league? An OLine that was below avg at best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the guy above said, its 3 (McAdoo, Shurmur, Judge). But even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while. I know Judge is awful.

That one was a blur since the other 2 were also loud mouth jackasses so they stuck out more. 16 minutes ago, BKLYNYG said: Three garbage coaches in a row… I forgot about shurmur he was quiet compared to the other 2 lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
