If your commanding officers tell you to do a mission that you think is wrong, and they can't be reasoned with, are you a weak individual if you still follow their orders? There is a power structure in our organization, just like there is one in the military. There will be disputes, that is a given, which is why ONE MAN has the power of final say, so that these disputes don't drag on for days/weeks/years.
If you believe the coaches believed Martin was going to work out just fine then how do you explain the fact that we pursued, and offered Jake Long a contract at all. Or the attempted trade for Albert. Clearly that is evidence that SOMEBODY in the organization was unhappy with the LT position. And I'm pretty sure that somebody was not the man thats since been fired.
And lastly, only a moron would risk Tannehill's blind side with a suicidal, drug abusing quitter. That is information Ireland and Philbin had at the time. For your theory to be correct BOTH Ireland and Philbin have have to be morons on an equal level. The odds of having two morons in complete agreement that they should trust a quitter to protect a raw QB's blindside, with no backup plan, would have to be astronomical. If only one of them is a moron it can't be Philbin, because Ireland still had the power to get a LT in here. If only Ireland is the moron then things play out exactly like they played out.
