now before anyone starts sharting themselves with despair

the dolphins were tanking this season. Dolphins fans have spoke highly of the turnaround Flores has introduced as far as culture goes.

though after Gase, that's not super hard to do.

Matt Lombardi enters his first season with the Miami Dolphins after being named quality control on Feb. 8, 2019. Lombardi spent the past two seasons (2017-18) at Baylor, where he served as an offensive quality control coach. In 2018, the Bears improved by six wins and won the Texas Bowl. Baylor’s offense improved by nearly one full yard per rush attempt (3.40 to 4.38) and nearly 100 points (292 to 384) and first downs (239 to 331) from the previous season.

Wide receiver Jalen Hurd was named the Big 12’s Offensive Newcomer of the Year. From 2014-16, Lombardi was at Louisville, where he was a special teams quality control coach (2014) and graduate assistant working with the tight ends (2015-16). Louisville played in a bowl game in all three seasons of Lombardi’s tenure, and finished the 2014 and 2016 seasons ranked in the top 25. He mentored tight end Cole Hikutini, who led the team with 50 receptions for 668 yards (13.4 avg.) and eight touchdowns in 2016. Hikutini’s efforts earned him second-team All-ACC honors. Lombardi’s first NFL job came in 2013, when he spent the season as a scouting intern for the Cleveland Browns. Lombardi earned his bachelor’s degree from Delaware in 2013. He is married to his wife, Julie.

    • We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
    • Bryce’s deep passes are intermediate passes for other strong armed QBs. I will say that Bryce’s accuracy on his deep passes have improved. Before they would just sail out of bounds. Now the WR actually has a fighting chance on the ball.
