Miami Dolphins Rebuilding - Again

[SteelersPride]

Injuries early too right? Your right the ship n get fired? Dolphins doing dolphins things.

Did the Phin's open things up for a Jim Harbaugh return to the NFL in Miami?

This is a complete fail by the Dolphins ownership.

Ten Years of Stephen Ross Owning the Miami Dolphins

We're a few months away from commemorating the ten year anniversary of a sad day in Miami Dolphins history. On January 20, 2009 Stephen Ross bought out Wayne Huizenga to become the majority owner of the Miami Dolphins.

Last time Miami had a HC for 4 straight seasons was Dave Wannstedt in 2000-2004

I thought Flores was one of the better coaches for them in recent years

I thought that they were going in the right direction. I feel like someone probably disagreed about the quarterback situation and whatever side Flores was on was the wrong one.

Certainly there best coach in the years Steven Ross has owned the team.
When Ross bought the Fins, they were coming of a division title. He fired the Coach Spaa series of decisions made by committeerano.
Ross' ownership has been marked by decisions made by committee.
He has tried to give Flores some space and it seemed to be working until Flores brought the team to 2 winning seasons.
Now it is time to meddle again.

GM Chris Grier should’ve gotten the ax before Flores.

Didn't the Dolphins win something like 8 of their last 9? What an atrocious firing. I feel Flores had this team heading in the right direction.

well...there you go.
Problem identified

I feel like if you're firing your coach who won most of his games its because you're getting ready to trade his starting QB

 

[sharkymcwrath]

I wish NE could get Flores back as DC but he'll likely have a new HC job by the end of the week.

I thought he did a pretty good job.

Miami Dolphins firing coach Brian Flores is an unjustified travesty of a clown-show owner | Opinion

Unjustified. Unfair. Shocking. Egregiously premature. Embarrassing. Irresponsible. Dumbfounding.

From what I'm hearing Flores couldn't get along with the GM and QB who probably wont be there anyway. I wonder if Flores got a call to interview for a new job before he got a chance to clean out his desk?

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Yeah firing Flores comes as surprise as he had things going into the right direction. Makes me think Jim Harbaugh is getting hired. Ross tried to hire him once and now rumor has it Harbaugh is willing to return to the NFL.

Ross has to deny that.
Firing a black coach for no apparent reason and having a white replacement already lined up?
There will have to be some time go by before Ross "changes his mind"

He's already denied it. He said he's a Michigan man and won't be the one to take him from the Wolverines.

I think there’s a big disagreement, largely about the QB. I’ll be largely rooting for Flores wherever he ends up.

That's just window dressing.....

Yes he had a winning record last 2 seasons and 4-2 vs BB and gets fired?
