Great quotes:
Got to give him some credit for changing an offensive mentality that has been drilled into him since he first started coaching... Its a good thing Parcells left when he did.
Great quotes:
“The people that I worked for before, [low-risk play-calling is] how they approached it,” said Sparano, who was brought to Miami by former team executive Bill Parcells after Sparano worked for Parcells in Dallas. “Nevertheless, this game has really changed and it has really changed in our division. If you don’t score points in our division, you’re going to have a hard time winning football games. So we have to do a better job of generating big plays, generating more scores and even though we feel like we have one of the best defenses in the league, we’d like them to play a little less.
“I spent a lot of time looking at myself in the mirror, knowing that I need to make the change. Obviously, three-quarters of my staff on offense is new [headed by new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll]. That’s something that I felt we had to do. I feel like Brian’s style is more aggressive … [But] it started with me with big plays and how hard we had to work to advance the ball down field in the past. That’s where I had to look at myself and say, ‘I’m the CEO of the football part of it. If I see it broke, I have to fix it and it has to start with me.’ We couldn’t crawl down the field anymore.”
