Managing a 7-11 night shift, and coaching the Pop Warner team it sponsors counts as an ‘other offer’? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardb1952 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 If Miami is seriously considering tanking next year Crossman would certainly be a key pickup. I hear Rex is available also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 He's a mediocre Special Teams coach who's units have fluctuated. You don't get anywhere with mediocrity in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes young HCs need assistants like that. Perhaps you're right Yolo. It's still dumbfounding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little thing called work/life balance that seems to fly out the window when the race is to be first in, last out at all costs. I remember Rob Ryan being so proud of the fact that he was sleeping at the office while working on the "All In" implementation of the Ryan D...that helped a lot, lol! https://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/index.ssf/2016/04/rob_ryan_has_been_sleeping_in_his_office_at_one_bills_drive.html 5 hours ago, Ridgewaycynic2013 said: Managing a 7-11 night shift, and coaching the Pop Warner team it sponsors counts as an ‘other offer’? Nah...Gregg Williams had already promised him the Assistant to the Secretary of the Interior cabinet job, but then Williams decided to go with the Ny Jets defensive coordinator job, so that dried up on him... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty lesser compensated career paths offer the same challenges- But I’m sure a desire to avoid hard work is a liability. Once in this club they can typically find work.

hemma Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Probably should merge this into the 'Dolphins Plan to Tank' thread. Fits in real nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chan Gailey Greg Williams Adam Gase Dowell Lagains Rex Ryan Danny Crossman Mike Tenanbaum I'm sure there are a bunch more that I'm missing. We all keep passing around the same failed coaches and personnel men. Meanwhile, the Patriots won their 174th consecutive AFC East championship this year. Fun times. To be fair, Gailey and William's are good co-ordinators and mediocre Head Coaches. The head scratchers to me are Gase and Ryan who were fired and then immediately hired for HC spots by division rivals. The teams hiring them had up close encounters with those coaches twice a year and still thought they would make the best choice for them to succeed. It's not like either have won anything substantial in their HCing careers to warrant giving them the chance right away. Crossman was not great here, its surprising to see him get hired to the same job somewhere in division also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
