As #Patriots defensive play-caller Brian Flores coaches one last (important) game for NE, his staff with the #Dolphins is taking shape. Sources say #Giants OLBs coach Robbie Leonard and #Jaguars DL coach Marion Hobby are both joining Flores’ staff in Miami.


Anyone know much about these guys?

Edit: My thread title implies that these guys are being hired in the same capacities here, but I suppose that is not in stone based on the news that has been supplied thus far.
 
Wow, I’m good with that. Flores is definitely putting together a good group of coaches.
 
Likely see Leonard take over as LB coach hes only ever been an assistant position coach but that's fine as both the head coach and DC have background in LB as well

Anything is better than the garbage Gase had here.

In fairness I thought Oden and Stoudesville were solid this season. I thought Kris Korucek was a huge get for the DL but it didnt work out.

That being said I thought the biggest issue Gase had with his initial staff was that if his first choice didnt come (Jerome Henderson and Clint Hurtt as defensive assistants) Jr just kept the incumbent rather than go look. Plus defensively it seemed like there was a lack of a plan... especially after Vance left (d wasnt good under VJ either but they did better at disguising things)

But to go along with this, guys are known as great teachers
 
Also something I want to add is that it is important that everybody is on the same page when it comes to a staff. Especially with our defensive staff it was obvious that things were not organized. Sometimes that results in issues just as much as scheme.

Big thing I am interested in is OL coach. I've heard some interesting rumors

I’ll say one thing about Vance . . . .the defensive personnel was attrocious and yet that unit was at least competitive.

I think the secondary near the end was Rambo, Lippett, Maxwell, Thomas and McCain LOL. Linebackers were Kiko, Butler, Hewitt, Jenkins and Paysinger.

Mario Williams was a failure.

There is a reason he got a head coaching job despite us having a subpar defense. Miami had no business being a playoff team with a 21 PPG offense and that defensive personnel. VJ made magic happen with that group.

Burke was a disaster by comparison.
 
rizzi , oden, studesville would be awesome with flores skeme

And they were a lot of things but certainly not competitive. They allowed 30, 35 and 31 points in their last three games. We’re blasting Tannehill for being unable to close out a season and make the playoffs but the defense gets a pass and is “competitive”? Just because Matt Burke was an even bigger disaster than Vance Joseph doesn’t change the fact that Vance Joseph was a terrible defensive coordinator in his own right.
