t was painful to see the run up the middle for a 1 yard game all game long. Teir pass rush was destroying us and yet no screen passes or roll outs to slow the pass rush down. It was horribe.
Ozzy rules!!

Fire MIKE SHERMAN's sorry butt?
- Thread starter -81- McMichael

One week he is a genius the next he should be fired, here goes the life of a OC.....leave the guy alone, he calls the plays and the players didn't execute simple as that...and yes I was yelling at my TV for him to roll RT out to get away from the pressure and to run some screens to slow down the rush but it didn't matter when he did call a play that worked the wr dropped the ball or the QB missed the target and that was only when the OL was able to block 4 guys, which didn't happen often......don't put this game on him put it on the players for not executing...they got shut out, this one is on them......
If our crack staff of beat writers were any good, they'd harp on that fact during interviews. However, they'll just settle for poorly writen, passive aggressive articles.

even if it was vs those teams, it would be totally unacceptable.
in an nfl where they basically gift u yds for free these days with the rules, getting 103 yds is totally laughable.
that is the lowest in an nfl game since 2010. what makes it even more pathetic is that like 40 of those yds were on a deep bomb from our back up qb.
this offense needs to be held accountable, the players, not only the coaches. everyone is responsible.

This isnt based just on this game but yes he needs to be let go. I feel he's holding the team back on numerous occasions

2020 cant get here soon enough
I don't know what to think anymore, do we have a GM problem or a coaching problem? It has to be one or the other, right? The fact of the matter is our offense improved immensely after we got McKinnie, we went from being ranked 25th to 15th in DVOA. We've got Tannehill closing in on 4000 yards, two receivers closing in on 1000 yards and Clay producing good stats as well. I made the point in another thread that we struggle against teams with top defenses, beating only one team with a top 10 ranked defense according to DVOA rankings (and in that game our defense scored 12 of our 22 points). The Bills are ranked 4th in defense DVOA fwiw. I think that stat is meaningful but I'm not sure if it's more indicative of poor talent or poor coaching.
Offensive coordinators are everybody's favorite whipping boys when a team is losing and I'd love to hate on Sherman as much as the next guy but we're putting up stats on offense that we haven't done in decades. And we're not talking about garbage time stats, most of our games come down to the wire.
I'm pretty sure our GM is bad so logically that must mean Sherman is at least decent?
And to give a visual reference when I say Sherman must be decent this is the face I'm making:

The bigger idiot is your hero Joe Philbin, For allowing this to happen week after week play after play. Just right there tells you all you need to know. I heard the other day Joe P was screening for a new reality show....it's called " Clueless Joe" with all the bully bs it happened under his watch, he has no control over that lockeroom. The players praise him cause hes an absolute joke for a coach, just plain soft. He's just not coach material, he needs to go we got a soft D one of the worst ST's in the league, a terrible offence the oline is a joke, just get the **** out of here, he should be embarrassed to collect or steal I would call it his pay, a very sad poor excuse for a man................

No matter how many people want him gone, he's staying. He is not only tied with philbin, but with Tannehill. He's gonna get another year, even if we don't make the playoffs. I'd bet my house on it. Wish I was wrong but I'm not. It's obvious

A Miami Dolphins fan, not a players fan.
I'll wait to answer this poll when the season is over.

The offensive numbers we are putting up are more a testament to the quarterback and receivers than to the offense. At the end of the day, our offense ranks in the bottom 15 in almost every single meaningful category including the most important one - POINTS.
Spin it however you want, our offense has been consistently bad for the majority of the season. We've had maybe 3 strong offensive performances this season and that's just not cutting it.

Here is the thing. Sherman has consistently shown an inability to deviate from whatever gameplan he chose for a given game regardless the effectiveness. He is not good at making adjustments at the half, he doesn't open up the playbook, and he has demonstrated no killer instinct. The only part of the offense that has consistently been effective is the 2 min. Seeing that how come Miami doesn't run more no huddle? Why so few passes to running backs? How come so few crossing routes? Why do we not hit wr running? Why do we call 6 yard routes when we need 8 yards? Why does he expect the rec to get YAC when we only have one guy that consistently does that? I'm not sure it's a lack of creativity as much as a refusal to accept his plan failed.
The WCO is an effective one, but there are varieties of it as well. What Green Bay does is different from Miami is different from Chicago is different from Washington is different from KC, all of whom run some version of the WCO. So what does Trestman do that Sherman doesn't? He hits guys in motion, he throws to Forte all the time, he runs a terrific misdirection pitch play. All of that is in Sherman's playbook, it sure isn't in his play calls.
