The obvious list....
Jon Gruden
Bill Cowher
Leslie Frazier
John Fox
Mike Martz
Mike Tice

Obviously if you have a chance to grab Cowher you do it. But if that isn't an option I would make a run at Leslie Frazier.

No to all of them.  I'll take my chances with Sparano and a new OC.

So you want a head coach who would have fired his defensive coordinator, special teams coach, and offensive coordinator all within a calender year.  Good luck trying to hire decent assistants who will work with a head coach like that.

Sparano is toast. Dead man walking.

Raheem  Morris did the same thing last year and his team is playing pretty good right now.

Actually you would have a head coach that fired Bill Parcells DC, STC and OC.

^^ word.

And I don't think there's that much to it.  I would show that as motivation to not suck.

Based on what? Regression the last 2 seasons he has been in Miami? He started off with a bang and gets worse year after year. Suposed to get better in a rebuilding process. Or at least be above .500

Asking to be above .500 isn't asking a lot

Our last few head coahes (Saban, Cam, Sparano) didn't have NFL Head coaching expereince.

When we hire our next guy I think we should go with someone who won't be learning on the job what it takes to be an NFL head coach. That is why a Gruden, Cowher, Fox would top my list. Obviously they will be the best candidates but they have experience. Even a Brian Billick I wouldn't mind.

NOOOOO! I actually like the guy as a commentator, but as a Head Coach he made horrible decisions in regards to QB. COnsidering the revolving door Miami has had at QB, he's the last guy I'd want!

No way is Cowher coming here. Gruden is possible but really? The rest are rehashes.
Sparano overall hasn't done a bad job considering what he has to work with.
There are no game breakers on this offense. Marshall is a nice big target for the red zone but he does not stretch the field. Defenses do not fear the MIA passing game so they are forced to play with a short field.

I repeat, if Gruden comes to Miami, I will stop being a Dolphin fan until he is fired.  The guy is as big an egomaniac as they come, and if you hate Henning's hard headiness, Gruden's is 100000 times worse.

So I agree in no way that we get rid of Sparano.  Having said that, what does everyone think about promoting Mike Nolan to head coach if Sparano gets the axe?
