With all of the different topics and all kinds of threads about what to do with Coaching, GM, Coordinators, etc. Lots of us on here have voiced our opinions but it's hard to quantify in so many different threads. I've decided to make a thread with a Poll of what each fan on here thinks we should do this offseason in regards to the staff.

For some of us, it might be to early to decide considering we have 2 games left and you want to see how the team plays the season out. Others, have made up their minds already. For the sake of arguments and for this poll...let's pretend the season were to end today. Here are your options:

1. Keep the staff in tact: This means you want to give Philbin, Lazor, Coyle, and Hickey another year.
2. New Defensive Coordinator: You want to keep Kickey, Philbin, and Lazor, but Coyle has to go with the way the defense has played lately.
3. New Offensive Coordinator: You aren't a fan of Billy Lazor but everyone else should stay, bring on an offensive guru.
4. Both Coordinators: You think Philbin is the guy and that he needs new Coordinators to take the team to the next level.
5. New Coach Only: You like the Coordinators and feel that they ahve done a good job but feel that Joe is the problem. In a perfect world Hickey, Ross, Marino, and crew can find a Head Coach that will keep the rest of the staff as-is but provides this team with a new attitude at the helm.
6. New GM Only: You think the coaching staff is good but that Hickey hasn't done a good enough job building this team in 1 year and want a new GM.
7. Fire them all!!!: Bring on a new GM, and coaches whether it means the new regime will rebuild or add-on to what we have. Most likely we'll be in rebuild mode again.
8. Keep the GM but we need a coaching staff: Hickey did well and feel he should be a part of hiring a new coach that will bring in his staff.
9. Other...Please explain In case I missed something (Thanks MadDog88)

As always, please discuss your decision but if you feel like you've had to repeat it a hundred times already I get it. Please vote though so we quantify how this board feels about this subject from a numbers standpoint.

Thanks Finheaven!

Oh BTW, is anyone going to the Vikings game? I'm flying down from DC for my Birthday to see my first home game in like 8 years!!!

Need a new HC and DC. Keep Lazor, and Hickey if the new HC will have them. If not, show them the door.
 
GM: Keep Hickey

HC: Failbin has to go. I doubt we are in play for Harbaugh, unless Ross ponies up huge $$$ and unlimited control for Harbaugh. I would not be shocked
if we hire someone like Mike Shanahan, who should be available, has won a couple SB's, and has experience as an OC, playcaller.

OC: Depends on whether or not we hire a new OC. If we do hire a new HC I see Lazor, getting the axe. I would prefer someone other than Shanahan's son as OC, if we hire Shanny as our new Head Coach.
 
Without trying to be a prick and in all seriousness, ask me again in two weeks and I'll have a more confident answer in the direction of our franchise. Though the playoffs are out of reach (well, besides that .19%) but the season isn't over.
 
I get you, no hard feelings. I haven't voted myself, because I'm not quite sure yet either. I'm still on the fence as to what to do. I've just seen soooooo many posts about it that I figured it would be nice to see how people feel now and how people feel at the end of the season whether we are 7-9, 8-8, or 9-7.
 
Dolphins are close to being a playoff team and ,imo, they are trending upward.
I understand why many want Philbin and/or some others gone but at this point I'm willing to give them next year.
 
All coaches gone and keep hickey. I think we keep our ST coach as wel.
Fire everyone else!

You haven't seen enough to make a decision?! What haven't you seen in three years?
 
Fire everyone except the strength and conditioning coach, Lazor and Hickey. Don't resign any players that are up for contract. Take the 5th yr option on Tannehill and draft a QB. Get Rex Ryan as the DC and conduct interviews for head coach.
 
Just the fact that the guy takes a pick WHO IS NOT THE BEST TACKLE AVAILABLE ACCORDING TO EVERYONE...AND HE ENDS UP BEING ONE OF THE BEST TAKEN...means the guy may know WTF he is doing...keep Hickey...
 
The more I think about it the more I want Kubiak or Shanahan. Either one would be an upgrade over what we have.
