Why McMike, and not Dave..

[Dphins4me]

Actually a lot of that comes with the fact that the Bengals actually started spending towards the cap when they hired Marvin.

Maybe so, but this changes nothing.

 

[Bling]

Yea, lets blame a coach for being conservative with a young team. He took a 2-14 team and turned them into a 8-8 team that made a push for the playoffs after starting the season 0-3.. Terrible coaching. The man should be fired for that. Damn you Marvin.


Not sure which games you are referring too, since I did not sit and watch every Cincy game, however I figure its the last two games of the year.


I will say if you think for one sec that Lewis is worse than DW than I have to wonder about you more than I ever have. Lewis took a less talented team last year and came close to making the playoffs, while DW took a SB caliber talent and never came close to making the playoffs. Yet you want to say he is a worse coach? I've wondered about your logic previously, now more than ever. Which scares me, because from what I've read I agree with you politically.

Lewis was passed over because of one reason and I think we all know what they reason really was.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't DW have a great opening season with the Bears?

 

[Dphins4me]

If you look at the Bengals last year...they were MORE talented than the Dolphins were on offense and were making the same stupid mistakes that we made on offense....Marvin Lewis had an offensive juggernaught last year that he insisted on controlling into a ball control mode.......

I give you they were more talented. Not by much, but that is all a matter of opinion. However, I will say it was also their first year in Lewis's O.

They finally allowed him to spend money on the cap and he brought in players to make them what they were.......

Which of these players did Cincy break the bank for?

Rogers Beckett: (A waiver pick up), Rich Braham, Duane Clemons, Shayne Graham, Kevin Hardy, Tory James, Reggie Kelly, Carl Powell, Kyle Richardson, John Thornton?

Where is the money signing?

By the way. They also let their best defensive player go in Spikes.

I think the above names disproves that Cincy just went out and signed talent.

Marvin Lewis has made all the same mistakes that Wanny and others have.....

You are pretty good at blanket statements. Tell us what mistakes Lewis made? Also it was his first year as a HC. I expect him to make a mistake from time to time. But please name them.

The key is finding the next great coach......Nick Saban?

He is not interested.

 

[Spinelord]

I agree!

DId anyone see how involved and emotional Marvin Lewis was on the sideline? That's waht we need to keep our players pump and aware whats going on.

yup:yell:

 

[Dphins4me]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't DW have a great opening season with the Bears?

DW first year in Chicago was a 7-9 season. Previous year 5-11.

 

[finphan]

:confused: Sitting here wondering if you were actually laughing while typing this. :confused:

Are you basing this on the fact Lewis turned the Bengals around last year in his first year or after coaching one of the greatest if not the greatest D in the history of the NFL.

I know. It must be DW great winning ability in Chicago or the fact he has taken a talented Miami team and turned them into the joke of the NFL.

Yea, that must be it.

:roflmao: That was good!

 

[Section126]

DW first year in Chicago was a 7-9 season. Previous year 5-11.

Wanny won Coach of the year in Chicago in 1994.

Where is the money signing?

They paid top dollar for the guys I highlighted...and overpaid in Tory James case.

By the way. They also let their best defensive player go in Spikes.

I think the above names disproves that Cincy just went out and signed talent.

WRONG...It proved the opposite.



You are pretty good at blanket statements. Tell us what mistakes Lewis made? Also it was his first year as a HC. I expect him to make a mistake from time to time. But please name them.

What? Now I got to catalog them? Tell you what...give me the names and social security numbers of every soldier that died in WWII.....Don't be ridiculous.....


He is not interested.

What.....Are you him? His agent? His wife? What? How would you know? I bet Huzienga can name a number that would interest him.

Overall....one of your weaker efforts....

 

[VJ1252]

Wanny won Coach of the year in Chicago in 1994.

ok so that makes 3 good seasons out of 10

 

[fins4o8]

Well I agree with you on the political board on just about everything. But not here. Hard to compare a guy who's been a H coach for a couple years, and one who's been a failure for a decade

:clap:

 

[R_t_Kraken]

Pay attention...Dave freaked out earlier in the game when Feeley got hit......You can't keep freaking out all the time.

He needed to freak out on his own players for not performing, not the refs.

Simple answer to this question. Wanny is a coward. And he is gone at the end of the year. He better be at least. I won't even watch the dolphins next season if Wannstedt is still here.

 

[Vegas dolfan]

Look at what he has done with this team, When jimmy left we needed only a couple of players and we were super bowl champs. Instead we are now playing for the number one pick. This is all Dave's fault. Get rid of him.

 

[T-ROCK]

Hate to break it to you...but Marvin Lewis is a LOSER.....Wanny is actually a better coach.

And what do you base this opinion on??? Certainly not last night's game, I hope...

 

[DolphanD]

Could you imagine if they miked Wannstedt for a national TV game? That would have to be some of the most embarrassing NFL film ever.

i wished they would do that. we can count how many different faces he makes. :roflmao:

its sad to see a player on the team getting pissed off & trying to pumped the team up instead of the coach. isnt that part of the job description of a HC?
