Wink Coaching in the NFL is underrated?

Look at the Dolphins as a perfect example. I just know we would be 1-7 or 0-8 if Cam was here.

I never thought we would be 3-4 and I would be so excited, lol

Tony Sparano for president!

What teams do you think would be better or worse if they had a different coach?

the fins have some good talent tho...the whole mentality changed when tuna came moreso than sparano imo.

I know the chargers would be a hell of a lot better if they still had wade phillips calling the defense

Yeah it is a lot of the mentality. I guess that just comes with Parcells and crew. But I like Sparano. Kind of neat will have our Super Bowl at home next year

lol - It's going to be tough for us to win up there. Our secondary is pretty weak. If Porter (MVP) and Co can get to Cutler, maybe otherwise it might be a long day

dolphins should be able to run and score all over the broncos

and as for merriman, he is a big loss, bigger than i thought. but the other players are just not playing up to their abilities, secondary is out of position, not getting to the qb and on top of that, Cottrell is retarded. Not a good mix

When you lose a pass rusher like that it kind of has a way to make the secondary look terrible

i agree, but look at the giants. They lose strahan AND osi, but they still are playing well on that side of the ball for the most part. The chargers d has the talent on that side, but they aren't executing and that along with the scheme being called is making for horrible defense* on the road that is. At home, the chargers are still very tough to beat

Miami doesn't need Pennington for Super Bowl. they need him to just manage the game for a year or two until Henne is ready to go.

Who wouldn't take Favre over Pennington BUT the big difference between these teams is the Jets mortgaged the future for this year while Miami is building for the future and the records won't be much different this year and probably will both be watching the playoffs from the couch

not to be a homer but i agree.... Wade Phillips took over defensive play calling yesterday and our defense has the best game I've seen since 1996
