I wouldn't believe anything that doesn't come directly from the usual fins beat writers. The outside media is pretty clueless as to the what and why. The author of the article covers the patriots for example.

Dumb move on their part. All I could do was shake my head when I heard that....

So if you are a surfer I wish you the prosperity that allows you more time to pursue the salt water dream, and the true happiness that comes from warm water, clean waves and the companionship of your fellow surfers. If you are an internet troll just spewing bs then f off.

a quick google search confirms the rumors!

Interesting. He has a 2nd interview with the vikings on Wed. and there hasn't been one confirmed interview with the dolphins yet. Mike McDaniel, however, had his second interview yesterday with the fins and spent most of the day in the building.

Brian Flores has had no shortage of suitors since the Miami Dolphins let him go, and his list is reportedly getting longer. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Flores is scheduled to interview for the New Orleans Saints head coaching job,

On the paid to tank issue I have a hard time reconciling the fact that the fins brought in Rosen, who would have easily given the Fins 0 wins that season, with getting and starting Fitzmagic. You know, a guy who was fully capable of giving you 4-5 wins just on his shoulders alone.

As far as not being hired, maybe he wasn't hired because of race.

Maybe he wasn't hired because of the revolving door of staff underneath him, you know providing evidence of people not being able to work with him. Perhaps it was due to his inability to put together an even average offense or the historically bad offensive line. Maybe it was due to the coaching decisions that for sure coast the dolphins a playoff spot last season with a strong case that could be made for costing the dolphins a spot this season too. Maybe it was the 2 years or so of issues with players leaking out of the locker room, some of which was more public and caught on film during games. Most recent example being the verbal fight he and Tua had and the blatant disrespectful things Flores apparently said. Perhaps it was due to 2 seasons of getting off to extremely bad starts, this year being the worst example because the team was expected to contend in the playoffs. Instead, they were barely even an NFL caliber team until half way through the season.

Who knows.

The NFL must move swiftly to resolve this. This is serious. Evokes images of 1919 black sox scandal, Pete Rose....

Dolphins hire Mike McDaniel as head coach: Miami agrees to terms with 49ers offensive coordinator

The fins were included in the racism allegations as well. I am not sure how anyone can actually buy that a minority GM with 2 minority personnel managers fired a minority coach due to 'race'. Not to mention, they turned around and hired another minority head coach to replace him. The fins also had 1 of the 2 female Vice Presidents before she took the job for the league itself.

As far as the other allegation goes, I will hold judgment until I see evidence or lack thereof.

Tyreek Hill signs with the Dolphins.

Hill, Waddle, Mostert are 3 of the 10 fastest guys in the league. If Tua can't cook with this behind the improved line, then he doesn't belong in the NFL

Dolphins will be a team to watch this year. Agreed with Tua, he had play makers around him at Bama that made him great. Time to produce.
