Active Roster
Sooo, let's go ahead and replace Joe...with (insert you favorite here). According to a lot of folks here, the new hire would be signed with the understanding that he 1. Must retain the current starting QB. (because, ya know, it's what the fans want). 2. Must retain the current O.C. (because, ya know, he is going to be the next Chip Kelly, and your future replacement, if you don't make it to the AFC championship game in your first season). 3. Hire Rex Ryan, because he is a fantastic D.C. (don't worry, we will put a clause in his contract that he can't go anywhere near a camera or microphone). 4. Hire Marino as QB coach. (he'll do a fine job of making our current franchise QB understand the importance of checking out of any running play dialed up by the O.C. because running plays are useless, and inhibit your ability to pad your passing stats.....and, it's what the fans want).
Look, I'm as frustrated as most of the folks on this site, and phins fans in general. But there is a reason why we can't get a "great" head coach here. This organization has a history of changing the staff every 2-3 years. No way any coach can flip a roster and get a consistent winner in that time. Yea, every now and then you have an organization that goes from worst to first, and it seems every year 4-5 new teams make the playoffs. You can't build depth to a roster if you keep changing the guy at the top because the guy at the top wants his kind of players. Yea, we have had a lot of injuries, and so have other teams...but the team that can overcome that, is the team that is established, and has depth at most every position.
I'm not saying Joe is the answer, but if you guys want to try to keep your beloved O.C. and Q.B. the best thing we can do is to keep Joe here. It might not hurt to name Lazor the assistant head coach, just to let him know he has a future here, and to let Joe know he may just have one foot out the door if thing don't get better.
