I was listening to Chris Mortenson on the radio he said that Ross, Ireland, and Carl Peterson all have different opinions as to who should be the head coach, ross likes philbin, ireland likes mccoy, and peterson thinks the search should expand so we can talk to guys like billick and shottenheimer, just more dysfunction as usual, i posted a little bit of an article from PFT about this as well.

Salguero writes that there is a lot of “behind-the-scenes” lobbying for each candidate. ESPN’s Chris Mortensen has hinted that G.M. Jeff Ireland and advisor Carl Peterson have had different ideas about what the team should be looking for. PFT

Peterson is right. There are other qualified candidates that they are not looking at.
 
IMO Ross should end up with his way since he's the owner. As far as Peterson goes he should be a non factor because he's just an "advisor" :crazy: As far as us fans go we can only hope that whoever ends up our coach will prove to be a winner. It's a crapshoot and hopefully we will finally win this one.
 
At this point I think Ross should let Ireland take a step back and listen to Peterson who has been around much longer. Certainly, Brian Billick, the name alone would put things into perspective around the football community in South Fla. I heard Michael Irvine talk about Billick the other day and he is just amazed with the level of football IQ that Billick brings with him. Billick has stated that being in a studio around so many different NFL personalities has made him even more prepared to deal with today's style of NFL.

While I wouldn't be dissapointed with someone like Philbin or even McCoy at this point, I would rather go for a proven coach in Brian Billick. I think that would puts things into structure.
 
Then we should hire philbin... Ireland should have absoloutely no say what so ever in the final decision...

Couldn't disagree more. Granted he's the owner, his football knowledge is suspect. I'd be more inclined to go with Peterson on this one. That being said Petersons candidates are not "yes men" so they are more than likely not going to get true consideration
 
Actually if this is true, they should remove the interim tag from Boles. They know he is a solid coach who they entrusted to lead them the last 3 games which he did. He is well liked and respected in the locker room and maintains continuity for the organization.
 
whenever ross and ireland put their thinking caps together it always spells disaster for the fans.

maybe its time to listen to an outsider for once. peterson seems to be the only one that has his head screwed on straight.
 
Exact responsibilities vary from team to team, but a general manager (GM) is usually responsible for the whole operation. Many teams however do not give their general manager responsibilities over financial and commercial operations, but rather only over football matters (including salaries of players and other employees connected to the sports operation). Some teams call this GM without financial responsibilities a Vice President of Football Operations or Vice President of Player Personnel. But the media will often informally refer to such positions as the 'General Manager' to indicate that this is the person ultimately responsible for building the football program.The General Manager will have ultimate authority over the players, coaches, scouts, trainers, and basically anyone who can conceivably have an impact on the product the team puts on the field. Despite having hiring/firing power over the Head Coach, most GMs are expected to treat the coach as a near equal. The GM will consult closely with the Head Coach when selecting players, and it is universally expected that the Head Coach will have substantial powers delegated to him including total control of his roster once the offseason acquisitions are made, and control over his staff.
