The Dolphins draft poorly.   That is on the GM.   Three years and no playoffs will get a head coach fired. 

But some head coaches are more involved in drafting and bringing in personnel than others. Maybe Flores has been super vocal on the specific players he wanted and the GM can say "hey, I gave him the guys he wanted." Not sure, but it is plausible.

I can not envision any coach pounding the table demanding Tua being drafted.  He was damaged goods.   We may never know. So good point by you.

If the GM had drafted better they'd have made the playoffs. He has wasted a lot of high picks and Flores has done well to go 19-14 the last two years IMO.

Doubt that happens, the word is Watson wanted to go to Miami because of Flores.

 

Plus, do any of these QBs think about going to and winning Super Bowls?

 

All you hear is that guys like Rodgers and Watson want to join the stacked AFC divisions.

 

Why not go/stay in the NFC where there are like 3 legitimately good teams?  AFC West alone has 3 good teams if Rodgers goes to Denver, plus the Raiders are plucky.

He coached his behind off and got the most out of the talent.  Seems the GM has the ear of the owner   Flores will not be unemployed for long.

Yea, Rodgers would be an idiot to leave the NFC North. Look at that division. Leave that to go to face Mahomes, Herbert and Carr??? Get out of here.

His scheme is vastly different to what McD runs so I wouldn’t count on it.

Their schemes aren’t as different as they look on the surface. They’re philosophically very similar (limit big plays and force mistakes), especially with the backend where there’s a lot of disguised zone coverages. The big difference in the secondary is McD/Frazier use more robber and cover 3 than Fangio. 


Front seven is where the bigger differences are seen. Fangio likes to have 1-2 D linemen 2-gap and free up linebackers to make plays…. However, neither are big Blitzers and love to simulate A gap pressure with safeties and linebackers in 43 under and nickel. Fangio though tends to cater the front seven scheme to available personnel though, so he’d adapt if he had to. 
 

I think McD and Fangio could blend their defenses together pretty easily. I doubt that Fangio comes here though. It’s more likely that he latches on with an offensive HC to maintain autonomy, and he didn’t screw the pooch enough to need a career “reset”.

Keeping Joe Judge would be so depressing for Giants fans. It's like "we're going to keep him until we fire him in the middle of next season."

 

Just do it now. The guy is terrible. 

Just setting up extra Twinkies in the canteen.  Judge won't be able to resist.
