This committee failed the most basic task given to them: Hire a coach who can run the entire team and galvanize the organization.
Gase has never been a HC. Gase has NO experience successfully dealing with the actual problems that plaque this team.
Gase has stated he may not hire an OC. All of Gase's credentials and strengths are based on him being an OC. If he does hire an OC, he effectively has no proven skillset in the job he was hired.
Once again we hired based on what other's thought. And we did not hired based on what we need.
We are in the AFC East. In order to get to the Super Bowl we have to beat the Patriots. Do you know WHO beats the Patriots like a drum? Tom Coughlin.
The Phins were "worried" Coughlin may not be around in 4 years. They wanted a 4 - 5 year solution? Since WHEN have we shown enough patience to endure building and losing for 4 years? And they wanted Dan Campbell to be on the staff because they think he is an up a comer. Exactly how long do they think Dan will stay without getting the job? Wouldn't Tom Coughlin for 3 years accomodate the LONG TERM GOAL?
We did not hire based on the 2016 Miami Dolphins' needs. We hired based on a "hot name". We violated our own "criteria" and "long term goals" to rationalize hiring a popular choice.
Gase ability to handle a media presser is weak and needs a lot of improvement. Who does this sound like?
Tannenbaum wanted Marrone? He patiently waited for a year to clear house only to hire a guy he didn't want? Does this sound like Power Trip Mike Tannenbaum? Nope, sounds like Ego Ross making his own choice and overruling Tannenbaum. This sounds like we've already started down the right road. Oh boy, any bets how this will play out?
So, who do you want to be your next HC in 3 - 4 years?
Dysfunction Reigns Supreme.
