Is Billick laughing his butt off right now?

The Fins are a laughing stock around the NFL because of Ross and Ireland.

We need a change of ownership to build a winning franchise.

My 4 season tickets are now available.

I AGREE 110% LETS JUST SEE HOW MR Ross likes it when the only people that are at the stadium on sundays are him his football team and ireland ,because Ross hasnt done NOT ONE SINGLE THING TO MAKE THIS TEAM BETTER ,GOOD LUCK SELLING TICKETS THIS YEAR ROSS.

Which is a probably a reason he is not going around begging for a job. If a successful coach like Billick is not getting interviewed it has nothing to do with him a a coach there is obviously other reasons.
I think at this point ross should swallow his pride and interview billick. billick wants to coach the team and says he doesnt care about gm, lets not act like the last superbowl winning coach we hired was a disaster. I hate jimmy johnson but he at least had us winning games

IMHO THERES NOBODY GOING TO come here to coach miami as long as ireland is calling the shots because thats what a head coach is for to coach not to be coached .Ross and ireland needs to get the hell out of Miami and sell the team to someone that wants us to win a championship.

Dude you couldn't be more wrong.

ok let me ask you a question ? say you was a OC or DC of another team and you have never had a head coaching job but you have done enough as a OC or DC to get reconized for a owner to look at you as a headcoach and all you was doing was standing on the sideline holding a clipboard and fistpumping everytime you score 3 or 7 points and your the headcoach and say tha you seen a guy you really liked and wanted to bring in to help your team but there in your way was jeff ireland telling you that you couldnt do that and that he wanted to and was going to bring in another running bk when you didnt need one and what you really needed was a wr and thats what ireland turned you down from getting and instead of going 12-4 that year you went 4-12 who do you think the fan bas e is going to blame >? and to beat it all you was trying to make a name for yourself say like a cowher or gruden but as i said you went 4-12 for the next 3-4 years ,who is everybody going to put the blame on ? it sure as heck isnt going to be put on your gm and there gose your BIG chance to make a name for yourself because nobody wants a coach thats only going to be good enough to have a team with a 4-12 record over 4 years span . thats your question can you answer please >? ( i just cant see nobody puttin thereselves in tha kind of perdicument for nobody . thanks )

The main reason you are wrong is you don't seem to underastand the relationship between the GM and the coach. Now I'm guessing by the nature of your question you grew up in the 80s or 90s. You see the win now attitude didn't really take root until the 80s. Before then an administration was givin about 5 years to turn a team around. Before then it was the GMs job to work with the scouts and get the talent a team needs so the coach can be successful. The GMs speak with the coaches then looks for the talent that's out there and gets the coaches the tools they need. This nonsense about coaches having the final say really didn't start till the 80s when the glamour coach was born. When Don Shula first came to Miami he didn't have final say on personnel. Keep in mind Shula coached in the Super Bowl the previous year. The man with the final say was Joe Thomas. At the time the fans want Miami to draft Spurrier, the Heisman Trophy winner. Joe drafted Bob Griese out of Purdue instead. The fans were pissed. Can you tell me who's in the Hall of Fame? Larry Czonka was a very unpopular pick. The knock on him was he was to big, to slow. The guy is in the Hall of Fame. Just b/c a coach falls in love with a player doesn't mean that player is the right player for that team. Recognizing talent that translates well from college to the pros is a skill that has to be developed just like coaching. When you have a coach that wants the final say what you have on your hands is an ego out of control b/c that coach no longer knows where his boundaries are. Coaches need to stick to coaching. Bill Cowher never had final say on personnel in Pittsburg. Mike Tomlin doesn't have it now. There is a lot of coaches out there who are very good and willing to coach with Ireland having the final say. The GM is usually the unsung hero of any championship team. I know the Pats are still winning, but have you noticed their drafts haven't been as good after Pioli left? Did you notice the fans wanted Ireland to draft a QB in the first round last year, yet he went out and got the best QB on the market? Yes Matt Moore finished with a higher QB rating than every QB drafted last year. Matt Moore gave Sparono the best chance to keep his job. It was Sparono who chose to start the wrong QB.
