HEY GUYS...UP HERE!!!!

MUUUHAHAHAHAHAH

LOL Nothing to see here.

Mornin’ sir!

Morning.

buenos dias

thank chris the god that it is friday

LOL Yeah I wont go so far as to praise him but yeah good morning.

lol rec'd

TCGIF

I kinda had a feeling about that

when McCoy removed himself/canceled his interview with the Raiders.

Anyone else nervous about McCoy? I’ll admit that I am.

Yeah,

I’m not a huge fan of his work in Carolina, but he did well with Orton in 2010 and changed the offense to suit his QB in 2011, so I am keeping an open mind.

Nervous about anyone, really

It’s not like we have done well with coachs since Shula retired. Some have been better than others but none were great.

No. He is well thought of around the league and quite a few think he is ready for the next step.

The fact that he is not a big name should not be what Phins fans focus on.

Hey 88, coffie B&E bacon & eggs!

Beav!

sup pal!

It’s Friday, it’s decision time for our beloved Dolphins. That’s about it. Hope whoever we choose is the man.

The rite draft will do that!

Yessssir

coffie?

Just scooped my 1st cup out of our Kuerig (or however you spell it) machine.

were on same pages!

Those things have become a currancy in my office building.

You want a favor from someone….they ask for one of those Kuerig inserts…lol

LOL!!

Just another reason a day at the office is like prison :P

Doom & gloom!

LOL Kuerig inserts are the cigarettes of the office prison.

Now I need a smoke...

No one "needs" a smoke.

I'll disagree with this!

The chiminee speaks!

Hahaha

nice one beav

AnishB15 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

Heavey amonts of B coffie are god in the breaking moments of a sweet day like today!

Me too

I’m very skeptical of McCoy; however what concerns me more then anything is what type of a staff can he put together. If he can surround himself with good coaches then it makes the hire a little less scary for the Dolphins. At this point we can only cross our fingers and hope he becomes a good hire.

Each coach brings his own GM so i'm not to uppidy!

Not usually. It is usually the other way around.

Omar pointed out he can bring Del Rio in as DC

you are right a coach is only as good as its coaching staff, but the Big question we should be asking our selves goes as follows Is this the real McCoy? lol i happen to think so apart from stats and the whole 9 yrds he has akey trait that differentiates the good from the great, something that none of the coaches we have had since Shula posses and that is the ability to adjust to his players strengths. he did a lot with very little in other words he maximized his players potential and put constantly put them in a position to win.

finfan11 - January 20, 2012 reply

Idk why,

But i have the feeling that today, we find the true successor to don shula. I feel like the coach we get today will be the right coach, the coach that brings the lombardi back to miami.

AnishB15 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

As long as it is one that starts winning early in the season!

Opps srry anish!

Yup

I just hope we can get a good draft and can actually pull off a winning record.

AnishB15 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

i hope that we trade our first three picks to

claim the rights to the brandstater

It is better than being old and full of hope. :)

I am old enough to be his dad and I feel the same way.

lol

As long as it is one that starts winning early in the season!

Never fear....for I am here....

Now that that corny crap is outta the way…..what did I miss?

Philbins out of the picture (according to armando, take that as you wish)

Its down to mccoy, and maybe some surprise candidate no ones heard of. It should be decided today and they are probably negotiating contract as we speak.

AnishB15 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

Nice

I have to admit I’m at the point where no one really impresses me just looking at their resume. However, I’m going to be estatic…I might even take off of work early today….if we finally get a HC. I know that sounds sad, but it would be nice to have some stability.

X's and O's are overrated to some degree. Does the guy have that aura? Is he a leader?

if is aura isnt orange and teal

than he can move along

I think he's the guy. McCoy that is.

But Armando updated that post to say that someone else said that that isn't true

We’ll probably be chasing rumors all day

Again….

Isint that the name of a urinal?

it is McCoy...

My buddy from skinnypost.com text me this morning, and he told me Vontae Davis text him that tomorrow, the whole world will know who our next coach will be. He is certain it will be McCoy. This is the same guy that gave me the info about the Brandon Marshall trade hours before it went down. The Real McCoy in South Beach.

FinzD54 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

nice...thanks

Alright.

Do we get to call him Dr. McCoy?

We could also call him "The Real McCoy"

if he does well.

Or “Hatfield’s Doormat” if he doesn’t.

Hillbillyism!

Indeed, good sir!

Manners well trained I like thumbs-up!

Day 1 on the job

ROSS: Mike, can you grab me a coffee?

McCoy: dammit Jim, I’m a coach not a go-for

ROSS: …… who is Jim?

IRELAND: So Mike…. is your mom

McCoy: Finish that sentence, Jeff, and I’m whooping your a$$!

PhinNomenol! - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

No, if that's the case we should call him "Bones"

Hollywood67 - January 20, 2012 reply

Gotta admit, I do like our options here

It would be great if Bowles became DC if he doesn’t get the HC position.

When you look a little deeper at these guys, it makes me wonder why we even entertained the thought of Fisher. But with his experience and name recognition, I can see why. I’m very happy that didn’t work out.

All in all I could see Bowles having great success (even though most of us want an offensive mind as HC) simply because he’s got real NFL experience, and the players might respect him more for it………..

There wood be little Going on as we wood pile all our dibeleifs on a name after the first 2 weeks!

Just think....

Once we get our new HC, then it’ll be a wait for us when looking for a new DC,….abnd possibly a OC.

If it is McCoy

Del Rio may be our DC, friends and neighbors. I read that the other day, somewhere.

That also a marrige set in hellraizer fastion!

don't get upset if we don't get the guy you want

I’m 100% behind whoever we decide on

spoken like a true Alpha6anator

I think you meant Alpha6analraper

lmao

yea….I meant that….much better than an anator.

I think it's more accurate too :P

WTF is all this?!

I’m not even here, and I’m getting assassinated….

There’s two asses in that word.

That happens on most every post. You just miss most of them.

That's because he has a loose butt****.

:D

Theres no asses in a word even pluril there wood be only one!

lmao

anyone else excited?

I won’t find out till about 12:30…so I’ll catch you guys then…hopefully with our new coach.

see how easy that was cya 12:30 rejoyce then!

or 1:00

Confused

I am wondering why Ross didn’t go after Billick. He said he wanted a big name with experience, well at least Billick won a Super Bowl as opposed to Fisher in less time. He led both prolific offense (Minnesota) and defense (Baltimore). That shows good coaching on both sides of the ball. I know he had talented players but you still need the right coach. Just ask the Bulls and Lakers about Phil Jackson !

miamimike71 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

billick is arrogant

zz top yur back to early!

Is he arrogant,

or just confident because he knows what he’s talking about and other people aren’t ready to accept it?

Wtf...

Internets fail.

I said “Is he arrogant, or just confident that he knows what he is doing and everybody else can’t accept that he knows more.” Or something like that

Most successful

Players or coaches are arrogant. I would rather have an arrogant winner than a humble loser .

miamimike71 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

Is there still that chance!

From what Ive read, both comments on here and the media....

Billick is arroggant and a lot of FO’s have suggested against him…..speaking anon ofc

One more note....

Also Billick stated publicly that he would love this job if offered given our talent level.

miamimike71 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

Resounding endorcment!

I would be stoked.

And yet him and Ross do not get along so there's that!?!

Because they do not get along.

Just call it "Current Events"

You’d be surprised what you can get away with discussing in class under that label.

which is why I'm studying history/social studies

I just LOL’d…a lot.

Ummm...Hw about teaching them Chem....chemistry of the team, of the coaches...the FO???

Damn them. My wife packed an awesome lunch for me. I know once I eat…I’m gonna get tired and just wanna go to sleep…..grrrrrrr

You should speak to NJ13 about lunch decisions. I seem to remember a discussion about lunches/wives/lack of tomatoes from the last Coach OT.

Just don't speak to fisher about lunch decisions.

You won’t have an answer before Thanksgiving.

He’s still deciding what to wear today….

He and his wife never consummated their marriage

he’s still going back and forth between which hole to use first. Reports are he’s leaning towards going anal.

PhinNomenol! - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

Oh big mistake their

Anal is the more flashy choice. But vag brings stability

Update:

After he decides that, he has a suitcase filled with different prophylactic options laid out. Not that he’s sure he’ll use it or go natural yet either.

More updates when he makes a choice.

(OK, I’m done with lunch this time…)

What about dinner????

Beef tenderloin

With garlic mashed and green beans. Doing it right tonight.

Sweet…I’m on my way.

Had some loaded mashed taters, steak, and steam broc with some sort of cheese sauce last night...was good.

My wife is from Texas….and surprisingly enough…she didnt cook everything in bacon fat

Did somebody say bacon fat?

Oh dude...

I once threw out a small can that had bacon fat in it that the wifey was saving….I got in trouble and she STILL doesnt let me hear the end of it. Not to mention she told her Memaw on me, who taught her how to cook.

Im surprised I didn’t have bruises from the wooden spoon beatings I took…lolol

BAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Took a bit of a beating that day, eh fella?

yes'sir!!

Well, speaking of cooking

I’m going to cook up a nice batch of chili this weekend. Something about hot chili on a freezing cold Sunday and watch football that just sounds, well, it just sounds like everything is right in the world.

mmmmmmmmmm

I love making chili. Chili, Beef Stew, and Salsa are the three things that my wife doesnt cook, because she’s tried making them…and mine are way better then anything she could make…lol.

I agree with you about cold weather, chili, and football. It goes together just as well as sitting at the beach, drinkin a corona, and watching hot young women frolic about….lol

No mystery today

Selected Chicken Fajita Spring Rolls. Just wanted to get something in the lunch box so I could move forward and start prepping for dinner.

Ah but the other OT….legendary indecision!

wait...what?

Isnt a spring roll meatless???

According to the Lean Cuisine box

It’s a spring roll. Who am I to argue?

McCoy + Mediocre

I can’t help but thinking we’ll be in another 2-3 year stretch of ‘almost’ football, then searching for another HC..

I love my Phins, but damn depressing right now… Where’s a real owner like Mr. Robbie when you need him?

Everyone disliked Robbie too

He was booed every time he was introduced in the stadium….including after he built the (then) new stadium. Tough being an owner of a NFL franchise…..

FinsSince70 - January 20, 2012 reply

I loved him.. but I guess your right, can't please everyone..

I didn't understand it at the time

Eventually I realized that’s part of the deal….your fans dislike you as the owner. Bet they would get booed even after winning a championship. People would say they won DESPITE them not because of them lol

FinsSince70 - January 20, 2012 reply

Ross is doing it right this time

McCoy may or may not work out but labeling him as a bust before he even starts is just as bad as saying he will lead us to the Super Bowl for the next 3 years.

Bottom line is no one knows for certain how he’ll be and unless your name is Stephen Ross no one else knows for certain how the interviews went.

McCoy better have him one hell of a coaching staff.

Who the hell is he gonna bring??

Goon305Boy10 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

As stated above, I read something about Jack Del Rio as DC. No idea who the OC will be. Hopefully he’ll retain Daboll.

Is Jack a good DC?

Goon305Boy10 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

That’s how he got his HC gig at Jville.

So if we hire McCoy

What might that tell us about the QB situation? Any thought on what he might want to do?

Considering he coached Matt Moore

I have a feeling he’ll stick by him, and not go after a guy like Flynn via FA.

Under this scenario, we will draft a QB at some point in this upcoming draft…whether he trades up for RG3 or signs Tannehill or Weedon.

Seeing that Ross has stated that finding a QB is a the primary goal in the off-season I doubt the new HC is going

to stick with the guy that he just happens to know.

When did he say that?

And didn’t he say something to that effect last year too?

No last year he said Henne would be amazing.

One instance where he addressed the QB:
http://www.miamidolphins.com/media/videos/Stephen-Ross-Press-Conference/61363ac3-4460-457c-ad9b-600ba8ecc39e

It was the last question at about the 11:30 mark

He said finding a QB is “essential”.

No. Different year and different story.

via Omar:

Jake Long pulled out of the Pro Bowl this morning due to injuries.

I thought that was old news? They replaced him last week.

I thought he was replaced by Ryan Clady??

Correct

That was announced on Tuesday. McGahee was named with Clady.

My sources say...

tell Omar to wake me when he has news that isn’t 3 days old.

Or that we did not already know what going to happen.

Not sure why he tweets the same crap over and over in different ways either.

Happens all the time with him bro.

He whips my ass. I keep thinking of taking him off my follow list but then he will be the one to break

something huge.

Eh…IMO, he’s about as useful as a screen door on a submarine.

Hey sometimes you need a nice breeze!

Isn't that what going commando is for??

Especially when you have a fan in the room?

I'm okay with McCoy

Coaching pedigree involves being a QB coach in addition to an OC. Philbin on the other hand climbed the ladder mainly working with the O-Line. We’ve played that game before

DC Phinnin - January 20, 2012 reply

Anyone else have the feeling

that we’re going to need an Overflow Thread today? LOL

Ahem....Mosul....you around buddy?....you got your finger on the trigger?

He's taking a nap

Considering he did a post at 5am, then this one at 8. We’ll have Finhead wake him up in a couple hours.

and he was in the CKC until about 1am

I’m a wimp, apparently. If I don’t get 7 or 8 hours of sleep, I’m miserable.

Me too, unfortunately had 2 kids wake me up this am

after the wife woke me at 5:30 while getting ready for work

Sleep fail!

She left me a pot of coffee so its all good :)

That’s the least she could have done…lol

I've written this before but it should be pointed out again. He's the real McCoy

McCoy is the man for the job and here’s why:

1- Former QB. Expirence leading men. Could possiby develop a QB of the future.
2- Only candidate of the 3 who has expirience calling plays. Why is that important? Because it shows that he has expirience adjusting to a defense on the fly during a game. Say what you will about Philbin and the Packers high powered offense, but Mike McCarthy is the one calling the plays and it’s his offense.
3- What he was able to do with Tebow this season and completely change Denver’s scheme mid-season to fit Tebow’s strengths (the option) is incredible. Tebow gets all the credit, but McCoy saved Denver’s season! It shows that he is willing to adjust his scheme around his players strengths the same way Harbaugh did with Alex Smith in San Fransisco.
4- Expirience. Though he’s only 39 yrs old, he has been coaching 10+ years and has quickly risen up the coaching ranks. He has a bright future as a head coach.

I should also mention that he was OC in Denver during Kyle Orton’s 2 best years as a pro and during those 2 seasons, his offenses were ranked in the top half of the league. This season, with Tebow at QB the Broncos were #1 in the NFL in rushing and McCoy resurrected Willis McGahee’s career. And during his time in Carolina as QB coach, Jake Delhomme was putting up some of the best numbers of his professional career.

Hmm.. Alll Good Points.

I need to stop being so pessimistic. Maybe he’s the real McCoy.. OK, I’ll give him my Benefit of the Doubt…

(now watch Ross hire Bowles…)

Yeah everyone focus' on the fact that he was not in the top 5 of offenses like GB was with Philben but he also had a

bunch of average to below average QB’s to work with. With GB he had a HOFer and a likely HOFer.

This ^^^

But a HC needs to look at all aspects of the team. He can't just be coaching the QB all the time. I hope he brings a real QB coach with him too.

The QB coach in Denver is 33 yr old Adam Gase. Wonder if McCoy will bring him along as OC, or bring someone more experienced in.

If he gets th job that is!!!

Perhaps. Another name to consider....

Josh McDaniels FTW.

He's at patriots, and will probs stay there.

Or Haley?

HALEY???

whoa

Now I know where my wife gets her mornin face @ 6am

It's hard to kiss the lips, that chew your ass out all day long....

Lmao & theres the second laugh of the day!

Nice caption rec!

As for the staff he may bring with him, I think McCoy might bring Jack Del Rio to be the Defensive coordinator.

Offensive coordinator, I’m hoping for someone with a little more experience than Adam Gase.

I heard this Brian Daboll guy isn't bad.lol

I'll pass. Lol

I’m hoping Ireland doesn’t try to force staff members onto mcCoy and let’s him pick his own guys.

He needs to be able to bring in his guys for sure.

I hope

we keep Daboll

(caveat) as long as he can provide solid plans for TD plays within ten yards of the endzone.

PhinNomenol! - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

I get that. Put I think the most important aspect of a coach is how he deals with his QB.

I think the most likely scenario we could see is McCoy brings in Kyle Orton to compete this season for the starting gig with Matt Moore, and for the Fins to draft a QB like Tannehill or Osweiler for McCoy to develop.

If anyone is hoping for a quick turnaround like we had in ‘08, don’t get your hopes up…

But he was OC when Tebow took over from Orton. I really doubt Orton comes. McCoy is an innovative coach.

RG3 and Tannehill would both do well under him.

Orton was removed mostly because the fans were calling for it. But I see your point.

Orton was removed because he was terrible.

If it were a reaction to fans, Tebow would have been starting in week 1.

Aw hell naw!

If McCoy even utters Kyle OR Orton, I hope Ross buzzes in Lesner to bitch-slap him unconscious!

Just FYI -

Jake Long has officially pulled out of the Pro Bowl.

No surprise with his torn bicep muscle, but just so you all know.

And the Rams/Pats game (STL at home) will be the London game this year.

Giving Fisher a chance to see his next home town....

When the Rams relocate….

Hahaha….love it.

lol

Considering they have a 3 year contract to play a home game in London,

I’m really starting to see St. Louis to London as a possibility.

They have talked about the possibility in the future

St. Louis to London and Oakland to LA?

'Would you like a spot of tea, Jeff (Fisher)?'

Don't forget the crumpets

Hopefully we play the Pats the following week, if that’s the case.

Oh shit.

Just got the press release from the NFL.

The Rams will host the game in London in 2012, 2013, and 2014.

Enjoy that one, Fisher!!

especially if they get moved to LA....

That flight would SUCKKKKKKKK

FTFY

especially if when they get moved to LA….

LOL So true.

Apparently, the Rams took up the NFL when they allowed teams to volunteer for up to 5 straight years hosting the game.

The NFL accepted the Rams’ proposal.

They can have it

Indeed.

Amen that.

are we playing the rams at home this season?

or in london?

NE is playing the rams in london

we are playing them in miami i think

Tison M - January 20, 2012 reply

We will lose to them as well, if we as "a team" exspect to get the (QB Barkley) that went back to school!

I for One dont want “a surprize offence” i want (a laggit team) as long as it did not take us 6-10 years to get back to the playoffs!

Because they can sell out at London.

Oh geez…you are awake!

Of course I am.

You don’t sleep much, huh? :)

Not really.

Coffee is your friend….

Yes, yes it is.

Isn't it everyones?

Some people in my office drink tea.

Not nice but funny

“Ooops…I’m soooo sorry.”

/walks away, snickering

Most of the time, the 5 am post is written around midnight, and it auto posts at 5

But, I’m up when it posts, because I am getting ready to go to work.

I really don’t sleep a lot.

it's cause the words Frolic and Hot young women were mentioned...lol

Yeah…that’d wake me up too…haha.

So who's left? Marshall?

Marshall has said he will play

And we have Pouncey who will probably be there when.if his bother pulls out with his bum ankle.

We also, apprently, have Wake, Dansby, and Soliai as alternates. Just have to wait to see who wins on Sunday and who pulls out for injuries.

I’ll put it all together in a story later today. I just don’t want to push the live thread down yet.

Good stuff Mosul. I'd love to see a Wake and Dansby in.

http://www.nfl.com/probowl/story/09000d5d82578253/article/2012-pro-bowl-rosters

Chris Myers was added in replace of Pouncey

Damn!

That sucks. I didn’t know that.

Must mean MP was the 2nd alternate

Still not bad as a rookie center though.

Yep.

41-10 not a fan. Mike McCoy no thanks! Well if the sources are right than Ross is wrong. FUCK!

Stats407 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

Yeah.

All we have to do is replace Moore with the worst QB ever.

My top 5 QB's in this draft.

1- Andrew Luck
2- Ryan Tannehill
3- Robert Griffin III
4- Brock Osweiler (Has potential to be the 2nd best QB in this draft)
5- Russell Wilson (2 inches taller and he’d be a 1st round pick)

McCoy could work wonders with any of these 5 guys.

No Foles

And Tannehill over RG3. Everyone has an opinion but man

I'm not very high on Foles. I base this mostly on potential.

Tannehill is 6’4 with mobility and comes from a pro style offense. He’s inexperienced but he’s got limitless potential. I like RGIII, don’t get me wrong. I just like Tannehill more. And I definitely wouldn’t give up 2-3 1st round picks for him!

Dude I like Brock the rock

But he is very raw and needs some time to sit and learn on the bench

I agree. But there's no denying his potential. I think no matter what QB we draft (unless it's Andrew Luck), Matt Moore will be the starter next year.

Dude I like Tannehill but over RG3??????

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js5si7nyzSE&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Here's a vid on Tannehill this season.

He’s accurate, he reads the defense, and he’s has great footwork.

Yeah I live in Texas. I got to see the kid play a lot. I like him just no way in hell that I take that guy over RG3 given the choice. NO WAY IN HELL!

^this^

Like said, if he falls to #9 then sure, take him. But I would not give up 2-3 1st round picks for him!

There’s other guys like Osweiler and Tannehill that we may be able to get late 1st early 2nd with more potential.

I like RGIII, but he's nowhere near ready.

He’s not 6’2. He’s closer to 6’0 than he is 6’2. Even though he’s possibly the fast player in the draft, he’s a straight line runner. He doesn’t have the lateral quickness to beat a defender one on one like Vick has. And he doesn’t have the strength of Tebow or Newton to withstand the punishment he’ll take for running the football in the NFL. Hes going to have to learn to slide.

Griffin has a lot to learn about reading a defense and going through his progressions. If you watch tape on him, Baylor offense was pretty much dink and dunk. Screen here, wheel route there, screen again, QB designed run, screen again, then a deep ball pass. He usually had to go through just one or two progressions, and if the play wasn’t there he would take off. That won’t work in the NFL.

The one thing I will say about RGIII is that he’s accurate. He throws a nice deep ball and he can extend a play with his legs. But he’s no where near a finished product and he’s NOT Cam Newton. He won’t be able to step right in and lead an offense.

rg3 said that he is defeinetly 6-2

he said in an interview that he would measure up for sure at the combine

We'll see about that. I'm very VERY skeptical.

So you are calling Griffin a liar? That seems foolish IMO.

Everyone says they're taller than they really are! My license says I'm 5'10 but I'm really more like 5'8! LOL

So yes, I’m calling his bluff.

That's asinine dude.

His rep is as solid as any playing coming out. NO WAY IN HELL that he lied to Dan Patrick. Your reasoning on this is so foolish its not even funny. What does he gain from “bluffing” when everyone will know the truth in a few months? Seriously what does he gain from telling a lie other then looking untrustworthy? Your argument is baseless.

I saw the Heisman video. You're probably right. He does look tall standing next to Andrew Luck. I take it back.

next you know...

you are going to try a triple stamp

Tramp Stamp?

Lmao! -.-

Height is not overly important...

As long as you have the other parts of quarterbacking down… which Griffin does.

Large hands?

You know what they say about large hands...

Large gloves

I have giant hands. Seriously I can never find gloves to fit. Please don't tell Alpha.

My lips are sealed.

LOL

He is not what they consider ideal (6'4) but he is taller then some starting in the NFL right now.

Just look at the Heisman presentation

There is no way that Luck is 4+" taller than him and look at how much taller he is over Trent Richardson (listed at 5’11") he is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJAyor1pktM

griffin was wearing heels

Look at the video again, he's wearing stilettos!

with superman socks!

Stop it guys. The monkey is going nucking futs in the box reading this....

Did notice he is wearing Oxfords, they are identical to

the ones that were issued to me.

So you're both gay....

TWSS

Well they were army issued

So you just called everyone in the army gay………

That's pretty accurate :P

I was once asked if I was going to the Army Ball..

.. I replied, “the Army has no balls.”

not!

He’s not 6’2. He’s closer to 6’0 than he is 6’2.

Dude please do not spread rumors or flat out BS.

When asked on the Dan Patrick show Griffin stated that when measured at the combine, without shoes, he “guaranteed” that he would not only measure 6’2 but slightly over. Given that its Griffin and he stated this in no uncertain terms I think we can take this as gospel.

Baylor offense was pretty much dink and dunk

I watched several of his games and he is no more that then Luck or any other QB. Look at his highlight reels from just this season and there is long throw after long throw after long throw. You wont see that many in a longer season from most NFL QB’s.

and he’s NOT Cam Newton

You are correct. He is a more polished passer right now then Cam and about 4 times more intelligent.

shazaam!

Rec'd

Don't look at highlight reels. They are misleading. Watch the game tape.

So you expect him to be better than Cam Newton in his first season? Cause that’s what I’m gathering from what you’re saying. I’m going to hold you too that texascowpunk!

He’s book smart, but he does not have a better football IQ than Newton. And I question whether he’s more polished.

shiny?

Polished knob?

chrome on the lips?

LOL

LOL You do that big guy.

He’s book smart, but he does not have a better football IQ than Newton

Dude your so off. I have heard interview after interview with this kid. He is so far beyond Cam mentally its not even funny. To begin with Cam could have not even gotten in to Baylor but that’s a whole other story.

becuase they wouldnt pay enough?

Interviews prove absolutely nothing. It just proves that he's more intellectual and he was brought up right.

Dude, have you ever heard Trent Richardson speak? He sounds like an idiot. But he has a very high football IQ.

Robert Griffin III could be a lawyer or a doctor if he wanted to. He’s a really smart kid. I’m not taking anything away from him. But he’s no Cam Newton.

If you have the mental ability to become a doctor

then you can master playing quarterback.

Is he a better prospect than Cam Newton was last year? I say no.

I would not trade the farm for RGIII. I would have been more than happy too last year for Newton. And I would for Andrew Luck.

Agreed.

And the same could be said about Ryan Fitzpatrick. But he's mediocre at best.

That's not really true...

I can’t play quarterback :P Very high intelligence often leads to over-thinking and that will get you pummeled on the football field. Look at Dan the Man.

Well in his case, he can process the information well enough

If he can handle the rigors of med school, he can learn to read defenses.

Remember the winning play against OU?

That was called in as a spike play. He saw something in the defensive alignment of OU, called an audible, changed his protections, threw a perfect pass to win the game and won the Heisman.

You are way underestimating the kid based on ignorance. Every scout out there says he will be better then Cam and no slight towards you but their creds are a lot more solid then some college kid from Miami.

True that. I'm no NFL scout. But I don't think I'm being ignorant. That's just my opinion. Whether scouts really do think he's better than Cam is a whole other story, but I disagree.

I think Cam Newton is the next young QB who will soon be elite. I’m not so sure Robert Griffin will be.

Cam is good but I doubt he will ever be elite.

when other great QB's die off (sent to pasture) alla Manning there studed out for a reason!

Oh,

he will.

Cam and Luck and Rodgers will be on top in 10 years IMO.

Unless you have anything to base it on

your personal belief really doesn’t mean anything.

The scouts are basing theirs on lots of scouting knowledge and research.

Every scout?

Really Tex?

Most every scout? All I know is I have not heard one pro scout or NFL guy say anything

but that he is going to be a star.

There's that GIF floating around.

Look at his highlight reels from just this season and there is long throw after long throw after long throw. You wont see that many in a longer season from most NFL QB’s.

RGIII throws a quick pass to the slot receiver, and it careens off his helmet for another 15 or 20 yards, right into Blackmon’s hands, who takes it all the way. It’s beautiful.

Yeah that one is one of those lucky ones.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqYAUD97lRQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Here's a video of Osweiler vs USC this season.

For a 6’8 QB, he sures moves well in the pocket and feels the pressure. If he can clean up those mechanics a bit, the kid has serious potential.

LOL That kid is huge.

Now in at QB for the Dolphins....

Shaqueeeeeeeeelle O’Neeeeeeeeeeal

LOL

LOL Yeah. At least he would have very few passes batted down.

we could of had Ryan Mallet for all that last year.

I was spanking him, cause I caught him with Finhead in that autoerotic moment. He’s suppose to take the annesthesia mask off a little earlier from him. So he don’t get sick.

that was very responsible of you

but why were you not wearing any pants

Just got done with your wife.

Ooops.

lol

she is like 7 months pregnant...

you into that kind of thing?

Damn it!! I can't do nuthin right!

Sorry. I was hoping to slap you and it backfired.

LMAO!

its cool dude…. i can take any kind of joke… the only thing that is off limits for me is mom jokes. She is no longer with us, so i dont take those so well… keep firing alpha!

Your mom is with mine. It's cool, cause they laugh at us, and our stupid jokes....

constantly shaking their heads....lol

... and saying, 'where did we go wrong?'

Wow guys, thanks for the update lol

Well gotta go to work, so....... Keep me posted

Word is that Philbin is interviewing with the Bucs...

i think if we decided he was the guy we would have come to an agreement already (or at least began talking about a contract), not forced him to interview with other teams. So, to me, it looks like McCoy by default. I hope there is some way they can keep Bowles as DC…

#1Heatfan - January 20, 2012 reply

Saw that from one of Schefter’s tweets from last night (RE: Philbin). I know Clements (the Packers QB Coach) also interviewed for the HC job with the Bucs.

didnt know about Clements...

but I think they are pretty much a package deal. Clements will just be Philbin’s OC. Maybe the Bucs we interviewing him for OC..

#1Heatfan - January 20, 2012 reply

Not according to what I read, but who knows. It looks to me that McCoy is the guy, unless they’re really keeping another candidate under the radar. The only person we haven’t heard much about is Carmichael, so as a dark horse, maybe he’s in the mix?

That said, I highly doubt it – someone would have leaked that info by now.

I'd be happy with anyone of these guys, but I had Philbin as my #1

as did i

#1Heatfan - January 20, 2012 reply

Same here

We're still taliking coaching, right?

Yes u dirty ol' man lol

Philbin is interviewing with the Bucs but has stated that he would take the Phins job if offered to him.

Right, but why take on an additional interview if you thought you had the job? Just sayin.

Yeah he probably knows that he does not have it.

Knowing Ross, he probably told him he was going to offer the job to McCoy, but if the contract doesn’t live up to McCoy’s expectations, he’ll call Philbin and offer. How twisted my mind is…

Nah. They know that if they offer to McCoy he signs.

Well considering we don’t have any candidates left, if rumors are true, the offer should already be in his hands, if not accepted.

Its probably just a matter of working out all the details in the contract. Those things do not get done

in a matter of minutes.

Indeed, sir. Ross should be in South FL by now, per Ben Volin. Schedule the presser!

The irony is that they are doing things the right way and still getting slammed for it.

It's called "Turd Sucking".

No matter what, there’s something wrong.

Right. If we win the SB I bet someone still finds a reason to bitch.

"If we had taken RG3, we'd have won TWO Super Bowls."

I don't think thats even close to true

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

Well you won't allowed to bitch

because you said yourself that if we get RG3 you won’t complain again.

Dude I will bet you a nice Mavs jersey that this is true!

Good morning fellow phin phans!

i hope that today is the last time for the next 10 years that we have one of these open threads dedicated to finding a coach

Bwaaahaaa!

You are a dreamer Phinatic!

lol... gotta keep believing

Running the whole show is a lot different than

evolving your offense from Orton’s to Tebow’s strengths……..

yay!! you did it!!!

but this challenge is huge – I Hope McCoy is the right guy for the job.

I think sadly its one of those things that you do not know until you throw a guy in there.

Hey guys

Agumen - January 20, 2012 reply

Saw this article this morning:

Imagine the mayhem that would ensue if the Colts took Griffin instead of Luck.

Two things would happen

1. We would trade our entire draft for luck.

2. the monkey, bacon, gets a boner for life.

AnishB15 - January 20, 2012 via mobile reply

LMAO

Monkey bacon?

never had it

And this I would be ok with.

yeah, i watched an interview with irsay last night

and he seemed to actually be considering RG3… kinda surprised me.

It's called a smokescreen

mmmmm smokescreen

Smokescreen season has begun though.....

Read that too

I would trade everything we can for the #2 pick in that instance.

Huge RG3 fan but Luck would instantly propel us into the Super Bowl contending talk.

so then instead of S4L it would have been more like

lose a few for andrew?

Well the biggest benefit is the #2 pick will be cheaper than the #1 pick

We can trade exactly what we would have traded for Griffin if he had been there.

either way...it is not going to happen

luck to the colts

1. Colts won’t pass on luck for RG3.

2. If they are crazy and do, the Rams would take him in a heartbeat.

not necessarily... the Colts can get out of Manning's contract if needed

the Rams cannot get rid of Bradford as easily. The cap ramifications would be severe and they can’t keep both. If they drafted Luck, they would have to try to trade Bradford and very few teams would want his contract. They would be better served to trade the pick and keep Bradford.

the Colts can get out of Manning’s contract if needed

They can but they owe him all that money the first part of March so they would have to cut him free before that.

That is true, but either way, the Rams are stuck with Bradford unless someone is willing to take his contract

WRONG!

All the upfront monies would charge to the Rams as would the roster bonus. The only thing that they new team would be hit with is the annual base which ranges from 1.7 to like 3.7 over the next 4 years.

Bradford is also due a huge roster bonus the first part of March so they would have to cut him but his contract

does not make him untradable from the stand point of the team trading for him. Its actually the reverse of that.

I still think the Rams would trade the pick even if Luck was there

I don’t think Fisher would give up on Bradford that quickly.

Yeah I don't think he is going anywhere. Just saying that if we traded for him with zero rework of his contract

he would actually charge less against the cap then Moore. If they tried to trade him there would be a line.

I think I'd be willing to trade fro Bradford if the price was right

Oh yeah. We HAVE to be in that line for sure.

Yeah I like Bradford. He just has a real bad O-line and no weapons.

Yeah we have a much better O line even with the holes and a lot more weapons.

Here's a question

Would it be a poor decision to take Griffin at 1?

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

Not in my opinion.

Same here

I would not fault them one bit for it

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

Just 2 inches shorter!

Honestly, it’s 6 in one, half dozen of the other.

I think Luck is more likely to be a success

Like 95% to 92%, they are both gonna be good.
But Griffin has a higher ceiling if he maxes his potential

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

Exactly. I don’t believe the Colts can go wrong with either choice, but I think this is Polian merely posturing/creating a smoke screen for whatever reason.

I am honestly surprised he's not already negotiating a contract with Luck lol

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

LOL – same here. As soon as he hired his agent, I would have been on the phone with him.

Right?

Lol theres no reason to smoke screen, everybody knows you take Luck, anything else isn’t a smoke screen, it’s dumb lol

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

If he took RG3 first overall, imagine the chaos that would be with that next pick. The Rams would have to open a call center to field all the calls from other teams, for Chrisssakes.

Probably

But if the Colts are even considering Griffin at #1, I think it’s safe to say the Rams will be fielding the same amount of calls for him.

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

Indeed…most likely correct.

I feel like well be the only team getting a busy signal lol

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

LMAO

That'll be our press conference excuse.

Ireland: “we were looking to make a move and we had Griffin targeted, but STL’s phone was busy..”

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

When can they actually start negotiating with the top pick?

Is it 2 weeks prior to the draft?

Yes.

Why

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

Luck is as close to a sure thing as there can be.

Why gamble?

Makes sense

I personally see Griffin as close to a sure thing as well, with more potential. Thats the only reason I would consider him along with Luck, because IMO they are both nearly flawless prospects

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

I do agree that Luck is basically guaranteed to be a franchise QB

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

I'm not saying Griffin doesn't have a ton of potential,

but he definitely needs more work. So I think we are in agreement.

Yeah I'm definitely not gonna argue against Luck at #1 lol

And if I’m indy, I’m taking Luck. But I would consider Griffin.

And if the option to trade down to #2 for a few picks and get Griffin anyway presented itself, I’d consider that as well lol

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

That is definitely a possibility.

I would scream bloody murder if I were an Indy fan and they took RG3 #1. There is a lot of picks to be accumulated for Luck… a 3-way trade with St. Louis and Washington would be a distinct possibility.

See, thats the small disagreement we have

I really like Griffin so I wouldn’t be mad if I was an indy fan and we took him.. But the best move is Luck

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

not to sound weird...

But I had a dream last night that the Phins introduced Carmichael as our next head coach…and in the words of Notorious BIG…“It was all a dream”.

Not sure what to make of this, but Ross’s private jet diverted and landed at Hollywood International rather than Opa Locka Executive.

If I was familiar with Miami, I would know what those places are... lol

Opa Locka is closer to his home and where he normally keeps his plane.

Hollywood is closer to the Phins complex.

So basically it mean nothing as we already knew they were going to announce someone today.

I Fanshotted... linking the Browns moving up to get RGIII

fan sharted?

fan fartted!

Adam Schefter just on ESPN..

Said none of the 3 candidates have been eliminated. Bowles is still an option.

OMG decide already

Just thinking....

Ross and Ireland had an 8 hour meeting with McCoy. 8 HOURS! I don’t think either Philbin or Bowles got that.

During those 8 hours, it’s possible they would have been going through the final details. Ie. type of staff he wants to bring with him.

Was he on that 11am plane from New York? 3 hours is ample time to go through a contract and sign it.

Then Ross could be introducing McCoy to the rest of the Dolphins hierarchy.

By the time this all happens, it could be 3pm that they will announce him.

Is this a good hypothesis of today’s events?

3 hours is ample time to go through a contract and sign it.

I guess for the larger details but all the little stuff has to be worked out between his agent and Ireland. I doubt any contract goes from “Do you want the job?” to signed in anything close to 3 hours.

true...I bet they worked through the night trying to get a contract with someone done.

Either that, or this thing will slide into tomorrow (heaven forbid)

Dolphins owner Stephen Ross has scheduled a press conference at 2:00pm to announce Miami’s brass cannot make a decision between co-front-runners Joe Philbin and Mike McCoy for the vacant Head Coach position with the Dolphins.

Ross is expected to announce the coaching search will continue for another 3 months, “just to make sure” they get the right man for the job. They expect to name a coach by the 2012 NFL Draft.

I'd like to see

~~Cowher~~ ~~Fisher~~ ~~Gruden~~ ~~Carmichael~~ ~~Chudzinski~~ ~~Philbin~~ McCoy get it.

Same

The QB whisperer.

I said it (way) earlier…I’m nervous about McCoy, but we’ll see how it goes.

Heh... like you have a choice....

Technically, I do. I could root for another team, so there!

Yeah, I'll root for these schmucks regardless of the losers they put on the field

So depressing.

Haha…my sarcasm succeeds once again!

lol. I understood the sarcasm

But you should try the sarcasm button! Works like a charm

I always forget

Brilliant!

I don’t even remember how to do that.

1 – Type @
2 – Then type whatever you want in the box
3 – Type @ again…no spaces on either side.
4 – ???
5 – Profit

@you're my best friend@

Fail

That shoulda worked!

Yes, it should have

There it is!

I used to own the sarcasm box

Me … sad …

It’s ok. Don’t be sad. Here – have some cake.

lmao

I was in Syracuse for 3 months in 2011.

Thanks for the notice!

Yeah,

it sucked.

Yep...that's my hometown

LOL

Same here.

Spent my first 11 years there. Lived near the upside down street light on Tip Hill.

Nicely done. I live in Liverpool.

The weather is much nicer here in The South...

you might want to consider a switch :P

Last June, I just about did exactly that (Orlando area). Family got in the way of that decision.

That's why you have to bring them down there one time first...

during the winter :P

Wait till it turns to snowing dicks...

wait, wut?

I have it when that happens

And then it rains golden.

Such a TWSS moment, but I’ll refrain.

I hate*

And I am an assistant editor for a newspaper, so I have to contain myself whenever people here are butchering the English language.

What blows my mind is when I see errors on CNN/Fox

I wonder how these guys get jobs sometimes.

Maybe if the Dolphins start doing things then I will have something else to focus on. Or maybe you guys can post up some nice pics of tatas and distract me :)

Sure thing…stop back around 10:30 EDT.

No sir.

How about a sizzlin hot female coach?

In silk langerah!

i wouldnt mind

Let’s get brooklyn decker here to coach. I’m sure every player will do everything she asks him to do. The sidelines would be much better to look at too. Leyts not forget the pointers she could give to the cheerleaders. Every player would play their hardest to make her happy. Its official! Brooklyn decker is my favorite candidate for HC

McCoy - Orton connection

Chance McCoy gets hired and brings in Orton…?

NuckifUBuck - January 20, 2012 reply

Don't like Orton.

Neither did the Bears.

Neither did the Broncos.

Actually

The Bears tried to get him back this season but they were behind KC on the waiver wire so he was snagged by KC instead. Texans also tried to snag him… can’t help but think they’d still be in the playoffs if he was starting instead of Yates.

Ochophosphate - January 20, 2012 reply

McCoy won't bring Orton...don't worry!

What is the fanbases reaction if McCoy gets hired? I say about half apathetic (don’t even care, doesn’t matter if we have no QB), half kinda pissed (he’s John Fox’s disciple)..

I don’t see any portion of the fanbase as a whole being happy with that move right off the bat

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

I said earlier in the thread that I’m a tad nervous about the guy, but we’ll see what happens. Just my 2 cents.

it will take awhile

let you know after week 7

You'll probably have that no matter who the new HC is.

I think are a few candidates the fanbase would like.

Carmichael was one.

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

At least it's someone who wants to be here

Instead of someone jerking us around, or appearing to.

Wanting to be here

Shouldn’t be our criteria. The fact that we have to search for a guy who wants this job makes me mad

It's definitely a wait and see situation.

here he is, alright nicky, youre the pivot man now, alpha gets a rest

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

no i just tried to think of the most ridiculous scenario

because thats what I expect from MIamis Fron Office.

they probably want a yes man and they are waiting to see who jumps the highest …

I hear

We’re in the running for that guy from Bama…I misremember his name…

Hush!!!

That makes sense

It’s gotta be a yes man anyway since nobody who wants a say is gonna work with Ireland

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

A true beliver!

It's just true

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

indeed

Well Scrappy if you hate Rob Ryan then you don't have anything to worry about

because he wasn’t interviewed for the head Coaching vacancy in MIami. The Dolphins only interviewed a total of 6 candidates and they spent 8 hours with Mike McCoy in the facility.

I believe without a doubt that he is the frontrunner for the position.

i don't hate him

…. i just think he looks like a psycho …. probably a guy players would run through a brick wall for

he is probably way too opinionated for this job.

Rob Ryan makes me uncomfortable

Like he’s gonna trick me into his office for a job interview, and then he starts unzipping…

Interview process

drop you pants, grasp the counter firmly and just relax

Unzipping?

C’mon, you know he’s wearing sweatpants in the office lol

No zippers at all..they are dangerous when you can’t see as you zip

Yeah,

even his socks fit around an average man’s waist.

The NFL and Harley Davidson combine on a new

well the Phinsiders was already taken. ;)

I like Jesse Agler, he’s not as good as Darlington was but still pretty good. He had some interesting thoughts on the coaching situation.

I hate that they stole our name

And know less

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

Mosul seems to respect Jesse Agler

So I know I am not the only one. Besides there are not many other places that are live right now. :)

'tis true

Little Nicky 21 - January 20, 2012 via Android app reply

I agree. I have always found the Finsiders show to be very dissappointing.

Agler doesn’t offer any real insights and Sam Madison isn’t a very talented commentater. Also when the hold interviews (which they obviously do frequently and are put up on MiamiDolphins.com) they seem to be very delicate with the questions that are asked and the ones that are chosen from the online fans.

Not that isn’t important to be polite or anything like that but the show is an outlet for great discussion, yet the interviews always devolve into standard media discourse.

He has offered some interesting points today, but typically he is

very careful with what he says.

Well they are paid by the Dolphins

I wouldn’t try to ruffle the feathers of my employer either.

Delicate was probably the wrong word.

I didn’t mean it in terms of being too aggressive toward management.

I guess it is just the show as a whole is lacking.

Nope

Understatement here, but this sucks. I hope it’s all worth the wait.

did it for a reason...was hoping, but here's for tomorrow

WTF?

wats up!!!

BenVolinPBP Just heard from someone that McCoy is still interviewing with the Dolphins today in a marathon session, but don’t have any more details

Maybe putting together a coaching staff?

I phucked off so long on the phinsider

i forgot i was cooking tonight – i forgot to start the fire (charcoal)

crap – i hope my wife doesn;t kick my can!!

What's for dinner?

got some KC Strip steaks $6.99/lb

everyone loves them unless dad phucks up on the fire

lol

If rumors are true that McCoy is STILL interviewing it may mean final details

including financials are being ironed out…man!

Would be a good indication

its going to be McCoy guys

i am going to be too tired to bitch about it too.

i wish the man well – sounds like he has potential to me

yeah boiiiii!!!

Common McCoy!!!

Breaking NEWS

Brett Favre

lol

BREAKING NEWS: Farve is so old he farts dust

I'm so/so on McCoy

I like that he’s worked with Matt Moore before since he’ll most likely be the starter next year and I like how he showed adaptability in the Broncos offense. I would have rather seen Bowles get it because I just think he’s going to be a real good head coach one day, but if this is the way the go then lets hope it was the right choice. Most of the past 8 or 10 years have really sucked.
