Forgot about thatTo be fair its the jets. Cant judge Bowles on that. I liked him also but he just wasn't ready to be a head coach. Great hire by the Lions

That was my impression when he was with the Dolphins. Cave man type who could instill toughness and reach a certain level but simply not sharp enough to deal with requirements of top of the league.
Granted, that's based on sideline demeanor and media interviews. But there was little variance and seemed clear cut.
"Flores joined the Dolphins after spending 15 seasons with the New England Patriots organization, where he served in a variety of different roles and helped the franchise win four Super Bowls – XXXIX, XLIX, LI and LIII – and seven AFC championships."I'm not going to compare any coach to coach Flo like he's some golden standard. But look at all the intricate details and decisions that has to be make interms of instilling a culture, vision, daily roster/personnel moves, general management, communication specialist, evaluation speacilist, game day-coach etc that you have to be rather exceptional at inorder for you team to have a shot.
Coach Flo literally held every job in NE and i believe he was there for some 14 years? Can someone verify that?
Point being, There's a reason why guys like Gase will always have a hardtime being longterm successful HC.
Not knocking Dan and i'm hope i'm wrong. But i don't see HC in him. I see a guy that can possibly be a decent coordinator but not the guy running the entire show.
Brian Flores:"Flores joined the Dolphins after spending 15 seasons with the New England Patriots organization, where he served in a variety of different roles and helped the franchise win four Super Bowls – XXXIX, XLIX, LI and LIII – and seven AFC championships."

I concur. I think he was the TE coach here in Miami before getting promoted as head coach for a few games. The players will love playing for him but he will get out-coached by the better coaches in this league.Lions are crazy! Dan is not HC material
