My hunch on Cowher is he will stick to his guns and stay out next year. I believe he is waiting for his daughter to graduate high school.Originally Posted by G. Host
IMO, John Fox will be given one more year in Carolina. If Fox has another bad year he will be fired and Cowher will take over in Carolina.
I don't think he was ever interested in Atlanta. He has been talking to Miami since October and that is where he wanted to go. He owns a house in Jupiter, FL and plays golf with Wayne Huizenga. He was just using Atlanta as leverage to close the deal.
This is a great move for Miami. Parcells may have a giant ego, but he is an unbelievable team-builder and a great judge of talent. He will put a good structure in place and bring in good people. He will set the bar high and bring a sense of urgency. Miami doesn't have a lot of talent right now, but Parcells will start building that team the right way and he will turn it around.
1) J. Allen has shown improvement this year, and the jury's out on Ginn, give him some more time to develop.
2) Yeah it is a great move for the Fins, Parcells knows how to build teams.
I would beg to differ, there are some young guys who show flashes of talent, but we do need several pieces of this puzzle.Miami doesn't have a lot of talent right now, but Parcells will start building that team the right way and he will turn it around.
That was actually Huizenga's doing.Yeah but we got the last laugh, Marv forced his ass into retirement.
Parcells built that Cowboys team.Parcells bails out after a few years and the Cowboys are playing better with Wade as the coach
Its a great move for a team that is rebuilding.
Mora was a complete joke and dick to boot. He said that he would leave the Atlanta HC job even in the playoffs if the Univ of Washington offered him the HC job. I never would want him coaching my team, he's crap.
COMING SOON...
I gotta agree LT. Miami has progressed forward a great deal this year. Fail forward!

"Flashes of talent"? What the hell is that worth? That just means they aren't consistent and the jury is still out.
I see very few foundation players. No QB. No young pass-rusher (Jason Taylor is a great player, but too old to build around) or DT who can control the LOS. No franchise LT, although there are a couple players on the OL who might be keepers. The only big-time offensive play-maker is Ronnie Brown.
Miami has very few players who can be classified as better than average, IMO, especially young ones. They have drafted poorly in recent years and really lack at the key positions (QB,LT,DL). That is why they suck so bad.
However, Parcells will change that. He will come up with a plan to resolve the QB position. He will get a pass-rusher to replace Taylor. He will build the lines on both sides of the ball. Those are the needs that trump everything else.
This kind of reminds me of the situation he inherited with the Patriots back in 1993. That team was dreadful as well, but he quickly cleaned house and had things turned around. Only a few players survived the purge. Expect a lot of new players in Miami in the next couple years.
I doubt it, rumor is Cam gets another year but nothing solid at this point.
One thing to keep in mind is that Parcels and Bobby Knight are good friends..... And Cam considers Knight his biggest mentor so there is a connection there, seems small but stuff like this matters when it comes to coaching circles. You want to work with people you know.

parcells moves from coyboys to fins just like jerry jones did.....
lets hope they have the same amount of success: NONE!
Lets exorcise the Music City Curse! No playoffs since so-called "miracle." LETS GO BUFFALO!!!!!!
Something Bill fans can relate to.
I still hear the sweet SWEEP of success!
I think not! Hey I have a question for you. The Fins have been SO bad , they have had 65 draft choices since 1999, do you know how many of those have made the Pro Bowl?
ZERO!!!
its nice to own the fins..... it makes relations with my buddy so much more enjoyable
Maybe so, but if he were in the Playoffs, he wouldn't leave the Falcons.
sometimes things just write themselves, j/k
What does that have to do with success?? How many draft choices have you guys had make the probowl??I think not! Hey I have a question for you. The Fins have been SO bad , they have had 65 draft choices since 1999, do you know how many of those have made the Pro Bowl?
ZERO!!!
1...4....12....45??......great, but how many playoff games have they taken you too?? Success for a team is not measured by how many draft picks you put in the Probowl.
And for the record, Ronnie Brown was a shoo-in till he blew his knee out. Just saying Tom

I think drafting is very important in a teams sucess! Look at the Cowboys, they have 11 players going to the Pro bowl and many they have drafted. (Parcells) It takes a good group of Pro Bowl type players to be a good team. I was just making the point that the Fins have had some really bad drafts and yes so have the Bills. I would also say that the Bills have a better nucleous of young players right now than do the Dolphins. That will probably change for you with the signing of the big fish, but I think having Pro Bowl players has a direct effect on weather you make the playoffs or not!
As far as R. Brown goes I agree 100%. That SOB was on 2 of my fantasy teams!
