Worst opening half in Dolphins history?

While I think Flores is in over his head, to call him intellectually incompetent is going too far. The guy clearly belongs in the NFL, but most likely as a position coach. Oh, btw he has a contract that full fully guaranteed for 5 years, so I would hold your breath for a 2 year exit.

Just FYI. Head coaches have contracts torn up and paid out all the time. Having a 5 year contract guarantees an NFL coach nothing except the compensation, it has nothing to do with how long he will actually stay. Very few coaches ever see the full length of their contract out. Flores could be fired next week for all we know. And if he is as dumb as he looked today it probably would be the best thing for everyone IMO.
 
Listen, we all want to see progress this season, right?

Well we now have a good floor to progress from.

I agree that this was a very concerning debacle of a start for Flores. If he doesn’t show more and soon, he deserves the Wilkes treatment. However Ross has only ever reacted a timely manner once to a severe mistake and the 5 year guaranteed contract might make that difficult for him to do it a second time.
 
Step a way from the ledge. The Ra
Flores is intellectually incompetent. He is only here to lose. What self-respecting, A-list professional coach would sign up for three years of losing seasons guaranteed. Flores was a hire that checked some boxes for the league, let the Dolphins become incompetent, once more talent is brought in, Flores will be gone, with a professional coaching record of around 6-26 over two seasons of work. he will never get another head coaching gig, probably get picked up again for the Patriots staff. To expect anything else is just silly, he is barely articulate, looked clueless today, had a team unprepared to even do basic football things or even protect themselves physically. We are indeed tanking (not for Tua, but we are tanking), he is part of the plan, always has been. Just put up with his babbling for another two years and we will look for a legitimate human being to see this through. Unfortunately, Flores and grier will likely screw up the drafting/rebuild also.
 
This was the worst opening half by any team in NFL history. Literally, we broke the record for points allowed.

As bad as this team is, that's embarrassing and nothing excuses it.
 
Get use to it. Remember when the colts tried to lose every game? Think along those lines.

Your elitism is nauseating.

What is your deal?Everything is extremes with your post..
 
Hey guys … it's the first game. We did just change every single system the team uses for every unit, tremendously turn over the roster, move on from all the veterans who could provide guidance, and make major roster changes to the starting lineup literally the week before the season began. We are the youngest team in the NFL. New coaching staff. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and suggest that there might be a possibility we improve. Until then, let's not go all Chicken Little "The sky is falling!" until we've had at least 6 games. Cool?

We knew we were tanking … well aside from a few blindly loyal believers who felt we were rebuilding/reloading. We saw the jettisoning of talent. We noted the stockpiling of draft picks. We expected the blooding of young players at almost all key positions. Losing isn't a surprise. Yeah, we took this one on the chin … but it's still only one game that we expected to lose.
 
This is what happens when you set out to lose... you lose.

The part that still grates on me is that Flores lied to his players during training camp... and then to us when he said that he had to much respect for the game to tank.
 
This is a new low, we are failing at warp speed 9. How do we recover?
 
Stop going to games, don’t buy merchandise. Ive been boycotting for years now. When the team loses money because of a **** product, they’ll fix the team.
