If you have a press conference BEFORE any firings, your not firing anybody.
for the record, no press conference was announced. Darlington just said that people will know what Ross is thinking
NO GM WORKS IN A VACUUM! They pick players with input from the coaching staff. They pick players that fit the coaches' schemes and personality profiles. There have been several moves Ireland has made that have Philbin's finger prints all over them, notably: gutting the team of any and all outspoken players, including Dansby and Bush. Marshall was also shipped out of town because he didn't fit Philbin's preferred player persona.
Philbin ABSOLUTELY had input on the past 2 drafts, just as Sparano had input on the previous 4.
That being said, Ireland SUCKS and SHOULD BE GONE! But it is really naive to just pin all the Dolphins' personnel woes on Ireland and completely absolve Philbin of any blame as if he is just completely sideswiped by player acquisitions..
Don't have a great feeling about this, to be honest.
good. This week will be dedicated to bitching and moaning about the decision and maybe next week we can start having discussions about players, etc.
