I'm happy that they didnt go for the "name" guy just for popularity sake. I don't know that anyone can really tell if a guy is going to be a good or bad coach when they have no track record. Losing Nolan as Def coordinator might actually be the bigger coaching move though he obviously wants another shot at being a HC and knows it wont happen in Miami.

With the Dolphins D and now someone with his offensive background Dolphins fans should be more than happy. Why take a retread?

Hasn't Mike McCarthy been calling the plays all along for Green Bay? Good for Philbin and as Bob says they needed a positive, but this hire seemed like a stretch at best.

We now have herd betting.. Kind of like a mathematical parlor game. Pick a herd of horses that include the fav and thump your chest when 1 of the herd wins.
