whatdrought Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Hoody coaching tree + full rebuild... I see this ending well for this guy. I hope for his sake that he gets a nice tan and heads back to NE quick enough to beat Patricia back for the DC spot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy Hix Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I like this HC signing a lot more than the coked out Gase one. Only 4 more years of Brady dominance until the division is up for grabs again...unless NE retools on the fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 He did a great job last night. Not sure how much was him and how much was belichick. I think he’s going to be set up to fail initially (on purpose), we will see how he builds from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s going to be set up to fail initially (on purpose), we will see how he builds from there Interestingly re Belichick's proteges, I was actually impressed to an extent by Patricia this season despite the record. In that Lions/Rams game, the Lions ran a quarters-zone defense that the Rams couldn't solve until late in the game. It's basically the same plan Belichick used yesterday. Also, when the Pats played the Bills late in the season, they played them right after the Bills-Lions game. The Lions were the first team to really shut down Allen's running, and they did it by simply dropping their LBs into shallow zones all game to take away those huge run lanes that Allen was exploiting in pass rush situations against every other team. The next week, the Pats did the exact same thing, and it worked. Scheme-wise, Patricia is clearly smart. Still, being a winning coach in the NFL requires so much more than simply being smart about game planning. That "leader of men" stuff really matters, and it's why Tomlin is an excellent coach despite what his detractors say. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flaz Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) I was about to start a thread on this subject but with a twist. Instead I'll just add my thoughts here.Living in a Miami market I just heard the introductory presser for Mr. Flores. I'll start by saying that I am thrilled that the Phish made this hire. The presser started with Mr. Ross stating the Phish had found a great leader of men. Our search had nothing to do with offense or defense. We conducted our search to find the the best leader for our organization. Then the GM spoke about how Flores was a disciple of BB and he will coach in the ways he learned in New England. Let me restate, I am thrilled with this hire. We all know the track record of assistants and coordinators coming out of New England, it ain't good. Now for my reaction to the presser, it was painful. Flores stuttered and stammered his way through 15 minutes (or more) behind the mic. He spoke in cliches throughout the entire time and if I hear another UM or UH, somebody will get slapped. In 15 minutes, there must have been 200 of each. Good luck Miami, I don't see this being a fun ride Edited February 4, 2019 by fl az fan 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike in Horseheads Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Big deal 13th coach in franchise history. We pretty much hire that much a decade ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I'll be surprised if this works out in Miami. No way to know how much is BB and how much is this guy, but based on number of failures of BB assistants I'd be rather skeptical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Bowles was their interim HC for 3 games after they fired Sparano. Don't forget about Wanny either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
