I blame the wide nine more than the players.

What's amazing to me is that we had a simple defense and yet the players seemed confused half the time, specially the back 7The scheme didnt help. Not just wide 9 though. No disguise no creativity. You dont need to be an exotic defense but teams knew what the d would do. Then we just started throwing stuff at the wall which caused obvious confusion.
Long story short you should have a bigger play variety than a double a gap blitz

This is where Flores can win me over. Can he make our defense play discipline, sound football?
Even if the talent is not great it still helps if you don't make dumb mistakes.
The continued unprofessionalism is a reflection on him personally + Burke and Gase I'd thinkFor what it’s worth, I chartered a fishing boat in Miami Beach last month (right before the Miami miracle) and my guide said kocurek chartered his boat a couple of weeks before and said he has never coached a more unprofessional professional dL unit in his career.
Said the guys we’re unprepared and some would routinely charter boats the day before games to party with “girls”. Not sure who those guys are but makes sense given the output.

It's a reflection on Miami. I don't blame Gase for that. Gase tried.
Gase really tried. Gase wouldn't have jettisoned multiple players who he felt were being unprofessional or not buying in if he wasn't trying.
Yes and no. He did try to get players to take practice and game prep more seriously. But he also didnt go all the way in changing things. For example, he told the beat writers that the penalties and missed blocks on offense was more of a reflection on players than coaches
I always thought that was the strength of the 2008 team: they may have not been the best players, but they didn’t beat themselves with the regularity that this team did.What's amazing to me is that we had a simple defense and yet the players seemed confused half the time, specially the back 7

Nah, Reynaldo hill with the DBs and Studesville as RB coach were better IMO.He was probably our best coach in 2018.
Ross emphasized he wants guys who love football. I’m sure this type of crap got back to him.
Joe Rose alluded to hearing that some vets advised X to shut it down because he’s getting paid.
This roster has a ton of rif raf on it. 2/3 of this roster could get turned over in the next couple of years. We don’t need loser vets infecting our incoming talent with this toxic mentality.
I suspect Flores will be a plus in this regard.
