Ravens and Steelers are switching coaches 

Mike Tomlin anyone? I guess we should first find out if he's even interested in coaching next year.

I don't think he is.  He wasn't fired, he stepped down.  He is still under contract for two more years.  He would need Steeler's permission to take another coaching job. 

I doubt he stepped down from the Steelers, because he wanted to coach the Dolphins.  I suspect after 19 years he wants to do something different probably something that allows him to spend more time with his family.

I think the biggest impact of his quitting, is the Steelers is the best coaching gig in the NFL, maybe the best coaching gig in all of professional sports.  Nobody is going to agree to be the coach of any of the other teams with openings for head coaches until they are certain they are out of the running for being the Steeler's head coach.

I find Chris Shula to be fan-casting.  If his last name wasn't what it was, we wouldn't be interested in him.  That just seems like the same kind of things as putting Marino in the front office.  It's just looking backwards.

I really think we screwed up by cutting McDaniel loose and we seem rudderless.

I couldn't disagree more. Shula isn't just on our radar. Also it was just a couple days ago you referred to Hill as the best receiver in the league. That is backwards thinking and clamoring for something that is gone. Miami and any team interviewing coaches are automatically going to seem rudder less because there isn't a face in front of the fans yet.

I sure have. As a kid growing up in the 1970s and 1980s, a lot of us had them pretty regularly.

It's a spread that basically dates back to the era between WWI and WW2, very similar to Marmite in Britain in that it was a great use of a leftover resource (brewers yeast) to make a cheap, high energy and B vitamin spread, that served well as a cheap source of food and rations.

The flavor is very potent, bitter, malty and salty, best suited to toast and sandwiches. For many years it was seen as a bit of a morning staple (if you traveled by train or plane, or had room service breakfast, there was usually a tub of Vegemite and marmalade with butter for your toast)

There are some who insist it's (at least) part of a reasonable hangover cure...

... but really, only an absolute idiot would try to eat it off a spoon straight out of the jar.

Hahaha ... Thanks for that detailed answer as I've always wondered but never knew anyone who had eaten one. Well ... every since Men at Work sang Down Under in the 80s. 

Downunder Dolphin ... have you ever had a vegemite sandwich and are they any good?

I don't expect him to have any difficulty getting a job as an offensive coordinator.  I doubt he'll ever be a head coach again in the NFL, however.

He has been requested to meet with 4 different teams as their head coach now. Browns, Ravens, Falcons and Titans. He might not get any of them but there's definitely some interest in at least interviewing him.

Keep in mind that when teams interview McDaniel for a head coaching position, his tenure with the Dolphins will now function about like the fart in the following movie clip:

When the Dolphins hired him it was like these guys' interview above "pre-fart" -- he seemed fresh and different and innovative.  Now the fart's been cut however.

Congratulations to Jordyn Brooks being named first team All-Pro after being snubbed for the Pro Bowl.

Likewise, credit to Brewer named second team (after Creed Humphrey)

Achane unlucky to miss out (as was Jonathan Taylor for the Colts)

Fun fact:  The New Jersey Jets are the only team to have not a single player named to neither the All-Pro nor Probowl.
