Brian Flores explains why he loves this team despite their record

Let's be real. The team shouldn't be 1-7.

One game certainly puts that on coaching, Jacksonville. Still, should be like 3-5 at worst. At least Brissett was the right choice at back up QB because he certainly doesn't threaten Tua.

They overachieved 2 years consecutively. One bad year doesn't make me blow it up.
 
I'd blow it up all to hell, don't give two shits what Flores says, he handled the QB situation like a coward, and his choices of offensive coaches have gotten worse every season. Defense his so called specialty is God awful. All totally on him, but with that being said I'm firing Grier yesterday and letting the new GM decide Flores' fate.
 
It’s 95% coaching. Do we lack talent in areas? Yes, absolutely: the OL, the linebacker group, the WR room.

But think of the revolving door that is our position coaches. The turnover in coaches over the first 3 years of a head coach has to be unprecedented. It’s absolute insanity to assume that this wouldn’t have the impact it has, and that’s 100% on Grier and Flo. Flores thinks he can bring in veterans and cut them and hire coaches and fire them a year later with no impact. It’s crazy.

So this man can love the team all he wants but in the end, it’s him and Grier that have screwed them over.

Flores is desperate not to lose the locker room that’s all this is. I too thought this team should have at least 3 wins, but you can’t argue against the total body of work of this 1 win team. We’re terrible in every facet of the game.

Flores was handcuffed at QB last season, that is apparent.

It ****ed with the chemistry of the entire team. No shame in letting Fitz play last year while Tua learned.
 
I love you too Flores, and I’ll miss you as well!

Agreed! I hated how Flo pulled Tua. Those were good opportunities for Tua to play from behind.

You're right. They should be 0-8.

I don't see it that way. Player development is vital to building a contender, so assistant coaches are a premium. I believe Flores's reputation prevents him from hiring legitimate position coaches and coordinators. As we saw this year, many of our coaches are position coaches for the first time in their careers, and player development has plummeted.
I have never seen a Dolphin team so unprepared week in and week out. Our offensive and defensive schemes have been horrible, with players unable to line up correctly and execute. Player development is nonexistent. Many players have regressed. The ineptness of our team is clearly on Flores and his coaching staff. It's so bad we don't even know what we have in regards to talent.
If we stick with Grier and Flores, it will be the same ole, same ole. One excuse after another, a young team this, young coaches that. A better and faster way to team success would be to start over and fire Grier and Flores. Hire an experienced football Czar who knows what they are doing and can bring along a solid GM with them. When they do hire the HC, I would like to see them include in their decision what coordinators and coaching staff they will be able to bring along with them.
Ross has really screwed the pooch again with the Watson fiasco and other poor decisions he constantly makes. If we are ever going to get out of this ever-losing cycle, our team is in. Ross will have to pony up and pay the premium required to get the right guys in here. Ross has gotten it wrong again! He is always trying to skip steps. Instead of trying to buy a starting QB (Watson) and pair him with an inept GM and coaching staff, he should have started on the organization side first and hired the right football Czar, GM, and HC first. With Ross and the Dolphins, it's always, one step forward, two steps back.

If a good coach had this team since training camp, Payton, Tomlin, Belichick, etc... what do you think our record would be.

The great coach I know best is Shula. He’d honestly be somewhere between 5-3 and 3-5, with a lot of wins to come with this soft schedule. He’d be taking Tua and preparing him to do what he does best, just as he would do with every player on the roster. He would have figured out the O line, etc. These are basic things we haven’t done.
