Your favorite top 3 Dolphins Head Coaches?

[allsilverdreams]

We have had some good ones.
A few in the Hall of Fame.
And then we have had some really awful ones.
My top 3
Shula
McDaniel
Jimmy Johnson

Same top 3 for me.

I started following the dolphins when Jimmy came here. While draft luck played a part in Dallas, I feel like if a few more things came together the dolphins could of made more noise in the late 90s. A few draft busts set back the offense.

And I think he was just burnt out at the end after his mom died. Lost that drive he had at the U and Dallas.

While it’s still early in MM tenure here, I like him a lot. Sky hopefully is the limit

McDaniel

Nobody else comes close. Not seen my team perform at such an elite level since Shula days. No other Miami HC has been close apart from McDaniel. He gets in after 6 games this season alone.

I wasn't around for the Shula era. Let me give a young fan's perspective, from what I've seen since I started watching the Dolphins in 2004:

Mike McDaniel
Tony Sparano
Dan Campbell

Mike McDaniel is a revolutionary coach. I feel like we have yet to see his greatness. His entire scheme, the way he communicates with people, the way he relates with players - he is special. I hope he is here for a long, long time with great success.

Tony Sparano I respect the hell out of. He was definitely old school, with the game clearly passing him by in his tenure, but he was a true player's coach, and the guys loved him all the way to the end. It's unfortunate things turned out the way they did. Rest in peace, Coach.

And what isn't there to say about Dan Campbell. After 3 years of anemic Joe Philbin he was a breath of fresh air. Clearly not ready to do the job when he was here, but his attitude is infectious. I love seeing his success in Detroit; it's been a long time coming for him, and especially those fans in Detroit who have had it a heck of a lot worse than us.

[ForksPhin]

Realistically, there are only three possibilities. Shula, Jimmy Johnson, and McDaniel.

No one else is in the conversation.
