    Considering all the crap Gailey has had to work with in the past....

    Maybe our O will be decent?

    43-22 with Kordell, Mike Tomczak and Jay Feidler as QB's.

    Does it turn out Edwards is >/= to those guys?

    I'll say it again

    the 2010 season is all about Gailey and Company....

    a chance to really see how much decent coaching affects a team when compared to Jauron

    The one thing I can't shake about all of this is if Gailey is so good at getting something out of nothing, why did it take 10 years to get another job as HC in the NFL. He never seemed to be on any shortlists that I've heard and no one dubbed him as a potential candidate.

    I know he was at Georgia Tech but the top college coaches get talked about all the time when there is a vacancy. Just curious as to why this is.

    Evans went from looking like a perennial pro bowler to a mediocre WR. The question of how a team with Evans, TO, Freddie and Lynch couldn't score, can only be answered by asking the head coach and the OC. Whenthey were asked, they basically said, "I don't know. We gotta figure it out." They never did...... totally inept and impotent.

    He has

    Barring a dramatic last-minute U-turn, the Miami Dolphins will announce later today that Georgia Tech's Chan Gailey has beaten San Diego offensive co-ordinator Cam Cameron in the race to become their new head coach
    The process to fill the Dolphins' head coaching vacancy following Nick Saban's departure to Alabama is likely to be over on Thursday, with Gailey leading the race

    How awesome would it be to see Chan beat the team that passed him over in the opener? Ahh...I'm getting pumped for Training Camp!

    Right I read that he was considered for Miami and Pittsburgh recently as those were the places that he was OC. However, when a coaching search comes up, and there have been a few, you rarely heard his name. Considering his well documented talent of getting good production out of random Schmoes.

    KC was going to hire him last season, but Pioli felt that the fans would not be happy without them going out and getting a "hotter" name in the up & coming coaching game. He's been around the coaching openings more then people have been aware. Was he my first choice, no...but his credentials don't lie...the guy knows offense.

    I agree he does know offence. To be honest, I'm not upset at all that he is the coach. It's just like I said before, if he was so good at doing what he is reported to do, why did it take him 10 years to get another job?

    Remember the last guy who had his career revived in an almost identical manner?

    Art Shell. 1-15 his first season back-- and gone. Not particularly encouraging.

    I must have been really drunk for a few years there. I do not remember Chan being HC of the Bills then fired & rehired 12 years later.

    Because nobody hires old people for anything these days. You always want the young hot shot. Coaches don't come with labels on them saying "guaranteed to get you to the playoffs." Team owners and GM's are not much different than us. They see a young guy and figure he's going to do a better job than the old fart.
