[socaljd3]

Miami Dolphins head coach...

Named the TE coach as the HC...lol


He might be qualified and i guess when you're a mess you can't get any messier...can you?

The dolphins have looked absolutely terrible so far this year. Tannehill has regressed and the whole team for that matter. They aren't using Suh correctly.
I really thought with the additions they made that they would make a decent run at the AFC East. They shouldn't be this bad.

Not surprising at all. He was +230 to be first head coach fired last week, should have taken advantage of that!

They talked about SUH on one of the broadcasts and said he's basically being used the same as in Detroit...the entire starting Dline has zero sacks, only a rookie has the lone sack if i'm not mistaken.

I don't remember what show I heard it on, but I thought someone was saying in Detroit he was just turned loose whereas in Miami it's more of asignment and scheme. Here's an article that touches on some of that.
deadspin.com/ndamukong-suh-can-t-save-the-dolphins-who-suck-1734582447
"Players have grown frustrated with Coyle, the team’s coordinator since 2012, and not just because they have the seventh-worst defense even with Ndamukong Suh and his $114 million contract. Their faith in his schemes has dwindled.

Players had a very frank and contentious closed-door meeting with Coyle this week, sources say, and they attempted to clear the air. The message was his schemes were too complex and constricting, and that they didn’t put the players in position to make plays.

They begged him to simplify, and a source said Coyle junked many of the complexities of the defense this week to allow the players to play".

Interesting...guess the talking heads on the broadcast didn't know this...

They were talking about it on mike and mike. I forget what it was but I think it was suh played the one technique in Detroit and now Miami is using him in the two technique which is a waste of his talent.

I think that's where I had heard it too.
