MrAndMrsFish Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 alot is going to depend on whether Marty gets canned in San Diego which has been rumored.....going to be intresting...but Mora and Gailey were interviewed for a second time on Sunday and reports state that Brian was coming in on Monday for a second interview.... could we see a Marty (HC), Brian (OC/AHC) type thing or will Brian just be HC/OC??? with Capers locked up you can bank on an offensive coach...with Wisenhunt gone....leaves very few possibilities...im not a fan of mora or gailey for what it is worth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrAndMrsFish Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 The decision will be made today between Gailey and Mora.....Wayne's plan is suppose to leave FTL at 2:45 for Atlanta to pick up one of the two guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prinmemito Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Not too thrilled with the choices. I really think Mora might turn out to be pretty good, but Gailey isn't anything special. He's not even that good of a college coach. I like Cam Cameron. If Marty gets fired, we need to hire him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not even that good of a college coach. I like Cam Cameron. If Marty gets fired, we need to hire him. I really want nothing to do with Schottenheimer. Not because I think he is a bad coach per se, but because his teams are so boring to watch I want to pull my hair out.

FutureGM Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Are losers like Gailey, Shula, and Mora the best we can get?? What about Dennis Green? Nothing says "winner" like Dennis Green. I know, he's not a good option either, but I feel like he's at least better than Chan "Run Up the Middle Every Play" Gailey, Mike "Couldn't Hold His Father's Jockstrap" Shula, and Jim Mora. Right now our best option would be to get Bill Cowher out of retirement. I don't want Marty Schottenheimer either, just because he continues to prove that he can't win in the playoffs, no matter how good his team is. I doubt he could win a playoff game if he were coaching the '72 Dolphins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishfan79 Posted January 17, 2007 Author Share Posted January 17, 2007 here is the crack pot theory for the day SHULA THE SEATHOLDER FOR COACH CHIN? A reader has floated an intriguing theory regarding the possible motivations for the Dolphins' decision to secretly interview former Alabama coach Mike Shula for the head-coaching job in Miami. At a time when some assume that a guy like Georgia Tech coach Chan Gailey would be hired to keep the seat warm for Bill Cowher, maybe Shula is the guy who would serve as the head coach until Cowher comes to town. Then, Shula would move to offensive coordinator or quarterbacks coach and further refine his skills under Cowher. Or, alternatively, Shula would transition to a front-office or executive-level position, where he would be working with his good friend, team president Bryan Wiedmeier. In the short term, the Fins would likely sell plenty of tickets and re-energize a fan base still reeling from the rise and fall of the Nicktator. If/when Cowher comes aboard, no one would complain. It's all speculation, but it would help to explain why the pursuit of Shula has been guarded so closely by the team. Meanwhile, we've been tipped off to the existence of yet another plane with the "WH" initials at the conclusion of the tail number. Though we don't know for sure that it's a Huizenga-owned plane or whether it's being used in connection with the search for a new coach, it has been in Denver since Friday -- and it currently is on it's way back to Ft. Lauderdale. http://www.profootballtalk.com/rumormill.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrAndMrsFish Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 honestly i don't believe anything that is written at profootballtalk.com....they are a bunch of hacks that don't know right from left.... just like Wayne was selling the dolphins...where they got that one from is beyond me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSwift25 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I don't doubt that a lot of these guys are going to be looked at as potential place holders for Cowher (read, 2 year deals with plenty of team options). However, the idea that it would be part of negotiations is absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishfan79 Posted January 17, 2007 Author Share Posted January 17, 2007 Wasn't Shanahan a rumor before we hired Nick Saban? I thought I remembered that back then... he was, he wasnt under contract though then. He even expressed interest publically. But this was a better job then too honestly.

JetsMania Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 The dolphins should just try and get someone new as HC. Why would they want Tice or Gailey who have already failed. If i were the dolphins I would go after a coordinator instead of someone with HC experience. I believe Sean Payton and Eric Mangini, two candiates for coach of the year, had no prior head coaching experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
