very sad painful Miami Dolphins club just fired one of the key players his leaving Miami Dolphins very painful……

Florida’s Miami Gardens (AP) — Even two consecutive championship seasons were unable to retain Miami Dolphins coach Brian Flores in his position.

Monday’s firing of Flores by the Dolphins was a somewhat unexpected decision that was made less than twenty-four hours after the team’s 9-8 season concluded. Flores finished this season with eight victories in the last nine games after going 24–25 and missing the playoffs in his three seasons in Miami.

Though no concrete examples of how the team came to the conclusion that Flores wasn’t the right fit in those areas, Dolphins owner Stephen Ross seemed to attribute the decision primarily to communication problems within the team’s Braintrust rather than problems with the on-field product.

Ross remarked, “I’ve been watching the organization grow for over three years now.” “I don’t think we were really working well as an organization to win consistently at the NFL level. I think an organization can only function if it is collaborative and it works well together.”

It wasn’t a comprehensive overhaul: Chris Grier, the general manager, will stay on. Grier has spent the last six seasons as general manager and the final three of those years supervising all football operations, totaling 22 years with the Dolphins.

Ross praised the roster’s improvements during those three years.

“If you look at our roster, you’ll see that we have a very good group of young players,” Ross remarked. “The last three years were spent on all of this. Before it, we had elderly, outdated team that was only going to get us to mediocrity. And based on our current roster, our salary cap, and the players we have, I believe we are well-suited for the future.

It was already looking like the Dolphins will engage in a process that has nearly become a yearly ritual this offseason: figuring out whether their starting quarterback of the present should be the quarterback of the future.

And that dance will undoubtedly still take place, whether or not Tua Tagaloe stays with them.

Grier stated at his final media appearance in early November that the Dolphins may trade for troubled Houston quarterback Deshaun Watson again.
