Ennjay Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 On the one hand, leaving is disruptive, especially when you've been telling your players you're staying, and who knows who replaces him in Miami (dare we dream of MM stepping up?). But on the other hand, he hasn't really done a very good job there -- and Miami has something like 22 free agents this year plus ????? at QB for the future -- so maybe we want him to stay so he can keep the Fish mediocre. Serious opinions?
Ozymandius Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 I want him to leave. He's a good coach that will eventually have Miami in a position to be annual playoff contenders.
beerme1 Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 The guys a joke in my eyes. MM will never get elevated there and I imagine will instead be shown the door. They will be mediocre regardless of who's in charge. And that makes me feel great
ganesh Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 I want him to leave. He's a good coach that will eventually have Miami in a position to be annual playoff contenders. I agree......His main fault was in dealing with Personnel....picking Culpepper over Brees...but even that he probably went by Doctors report rather than anything else. This guy flat out beat some of the top teams this year. Eventually in the next season or two he will have a team that he completely built and will be contending in the AFC East.
East Brady Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Saban is over rated look out for Mora..........
Kuile Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 His leaving would be worse than when Williams bolted to smoke pot in some far-off land. He leaves them with a major QB question (Daunte, Joey, or Lemon), an aging defense, and no clear replacement from within (I think they know better than MM). His leaving would likely cause outrage and possible legal action from their owner and would dominate headlines for a few weeks, as well. Don't forget, he has total control down there, so the postseason plan would have to change right away. I think he would eventually lead the team in the right direction, especially if they added some offensive line help. From a Bills' fan POV, Saban leaving makes life in possibly one of next season's best divisions a little easier because Miami will have to adjust to a new coach and system.
Rubes Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 I'll take whichever option leaves the Fins in a greater state of abject disaster.
marauderswr80 Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Saban = Spurrier.......both good coaches, in college ball. I think Mora got the raw end of the deal in the ATL, but he dug his own grave also with those dumb comments. He could make the Dolphins a decent team.

Adam Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 He will be a big loss for them WHEN he leaves. I hope they promote Mularkey
JimBob2232 Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Yeah, I think he is a very good coach. Miami's loss is our gain. If they promote mularkey, even better. Cant see that happening though!
Rubes Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Doesn't anybody think that, if Saban leaves, Dom Capers will be ready to take over? I don't exactly relish that thought, but then again, Miami has a lot of issues right now.
X. Benedict Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Two good scenario's for Bills fans. #1 - Saban stays even better: #1A Saban stays with Meathead or #2 Saban leaves and Meathead stays
DrDawkinstein Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 BEST CASE SCENARIO FOR BILLS/BILLS FANS: Saban leaves for college. Fins hire Mora. Mora keeps Mularkey. Saban is a better coach than Mora can ever hope to be. No matter who Miami gets to fill in after Saban is a step down based on who is available right now.
beerme1 Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Saban = Spurrier.......both good coaches, in college ball. This says all you need to know. I don't understand why some of you think that Saban will be gold in the NFL?
2003Contenders Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Given our 3-1 record against him -- and the one loss was almost a fluke that only MM could have presided over -- I'd almost rather that he stay. With that said, I have a feeling that if he does leave, then Taylor, Thomas and others are probably gone.
scribo Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 What are the stinkin' fish fans thinking? Not that they know what's best for their own team, but I am curious. I know we have a couple who frequent the Wall. Where you at?
Lv-Bills Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Damn, if Saban leaves, how do we, as Bills fans, keep Mularkey in our division. I mean, if Meathhead doesn't get promoted, will he even remain on as OC? We can only hope. I have a feeling that if Saban is gone, Mularkey is gone, and off to greener pastures and the new Boise State, quality control, trick play coach!

Serious opinions? I hope he stays. He's a really good coach, but you can't have half of your heart into it in the NFL and be a great coach. IMO, he always has an eye on the "greener" grass on the other side of the fence and that is good news for us. Stay Nick.
DrDawkinstein Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 btw, he's craaAAAaaAAAAzy if he doesnt take the alabama job, imo
