I was watching the Jacksonville Jaguars against the Bills and suddenly they showed Tom Coughlin on the screen. Tony Romo stated that Coughlin has his finger prints all over this team and that's why they're tough and well disciplined, play good defense etc.
I began thinking that Tom Coughlin has an equal position of authority that Mike Tannenbaum has, both guys operate above the GM and report to the owner. So what are the differences between these 2 guys and who would we rather have building our roster?
Tom Coughlin- has been either a Head Coach or a coordinator at the NFL level for 20 years. He has won 3 Super Bowls.
Mike Tannenbaum-Attorney, Agent-brought to the Jets to do the salary cap and contracts and he eventually destroyed the Jets salary cap and was fired. He got a job as an agent with Priority Sports and Entertainment until the Dolphins lured him away with a big job and salary. Are we stupid beyond belief????????????
Bottom line-there is no hard core Football guy overseeing things. Steve Ross doesn't know Football, Tannenbaum doesn't either. Gase knows some things but he's a first time Coach with a ton of stuff on his plate, too much. I really don't know what Chris Grier does except report to Tannenbaum. I know we tried the Guru thing before and it back fired but who can we look to that would give us a positive feeling about the near future of the Miami Dolphins?
