1) Shea doesn't seem to be making magic in Miami.

He was doing well for KC though, why was he not retained? Why put Dick Curl in that position? Of all the assistants that Herm retained, why wasn't TS one of them? The defense was the problem, they should have all been shitcanned and offense untouched.

I try and see past political correctness BS, since we are not behind their closed doors. I have felt this way for a long time and have seen nothing to change my mind. Herm came right out of the gate, blaming the offense for the defenses failures.

Agreed and I don't intend to insenuate he wished any bodily harm on Trent Green.

He simply was not the right QB behind a crappy OLine.

IMO further inhibiting him was not the answer. I remember this board clamoring to let Trent audible.

Why the heck is Samie Parker still on this team? Whose decision is that?
