POLL: Who do you want to coach the Dolphins next year?

[CF DolFan]

I am currently in the "A Head Coach doesn't do much anyway!" stage of grief. I'll take the mediocre and bland coach if he can somehow hire a good staff. That's really all we need. That, and make sure your team doesn't no show 3-4 times a year like we did under Flores.

If this thread is still going next week, I will say "Look, we just need someone who is alive and not incarcerated at the moment. Pending trial is FINE just not convicted."

I keep hearing Vance Joseph is our favorite. Kind of funny no one else has interviewed him and yet we think he's the missing piece.

To me i just want a Head Coach that has head coaching experience and one that has won it all at least once. Doug Pederson seems like the only choice for me.

One question, When Doug Pederson won it all with Philly. How much of it was his coaching philosophy and style vs having a team that anyone could coach to a Superbowl ring. Could anyone explain his style?

Assuming they aren't going to rip up the contract.

They won't pay him but if he returns, he is under the Saints control. I truly think he needs a break or is done. He has a long history with the franchise and city and forcing your way out to coach another team is really underhanded. Doubt that is what this is about.

He's running away like a coward because he knows his team is not going to compete next year.   They are $74 million over the cap and have an aging defense.   They're going to be bottom feeders for a while.

True, but I don't think he is forcing his way out and onto another team. He just doesn't want to have 5 wins a year for the next 3 years and would rather have a break or retire now. Some team would have to compensate New Orleans for him and if there relationship is bad, they will hold him ransom. Who is going to give up multiple draft picks for a coach?

The thing about him is everyone is saying it was because of Frank Reich, and once he left Philly went to shit.

Yes, if he goes to another team they are going to have to give up some #1 picks.

The NY Daily News, which is one of the top papers in NY despite being garbage, says that Brian Daboll is the favorite to land the Dolphins job. Maybe the writer is connected and knows that Daboll wants Miami over the Giants or maybe this is Daboll leaking to them to get the Giants to increase his contract/power. Who knows?

Either way, if it is Daboll, I guess we could've done worse. Not doing the worst thing is a victory for this franchise so we'll see what happens.

My choices I found acceptable were Harbaugh>Mike McDaniel>Daboll.  Not my first or second choice but I wouldn't be upset with Daboll.

Safe assumption I'd say.

I don't think Harbaugh is coming back to the NFL this year. If he is, he would've told us first based off of the Michigan connection and if he is and we balked, then we are assholes.

I still think Harbaugh is using the NFL to get a better contract with Michigan after his salary was cut in half last year.  Plus they probably had their best season yet under him, so he may have a good roster at Michigan; and the games they won this year will help with recruiting.

The Jags have hired Doug Pederson.

It's increasingly looking like we're going to wind up with first time HC again. So much for Ross wanting someone with experience...

And it won't be Mike McDaniel either.   I saw a couple tweets that McDaniel will only coach for teams who are located in states that have legalized marijuana.   Florida doesn't meet that criteria.
