He seemed to know what he was doing in Miami, but then the HC Dave Wannstedt was also defensive minded. So perhaps he had some help with the Dolphins defense.

 

 

I found an interesting article, posted a link

Hiring old retreads seemed to work for Dick Vermeil in St Loius, maybe is another good ole boy

 

Bates was interim HC at Miami and went 3-4 and even beat the Patriots (SB team) that year. He went to Green Bay for 2 years as DC and when they fired Mike Sherman he was up for consideration as HC. They didn't hire him and he took it hard.The guy hasn't had a top defense since.

Keep in mind that Bates wasn't too happy that he didn't get the HC position in Miami. I'm pretty confident that he would like to prove them wrong. I'd love to have Bates as our DC.
