Getting so impatient bro! We've done all of our interviews what's taking so long?

Obviously joking I know these things take time. But I am expecting news soon, gotta think once Tepper has his guy circles he won't want to chance him landing somewhere else.

Don't figure they wanna announce today while the playoff games are going on (league would probably frown on that too).

Could be tomorrow or the next few days...or they could announce they're doing a second round of interviews :Eyes_Emoji_42x42:

Why? He was terrible with Dolphins. We need Peters or Dobbs and that’s final!

The dolphins are a dumpster fire. They drafted a QB 5th overall less than a year ago and have already tried to ruin him by connecting him to a DW trade rumors....

I think that’s just how they are.

Somebody that covers the Dolphins (I forget who) made a statement a little while back to the effect that a lot of the bad moves that happened during Ireland's tenure were more attributable to Bill Parcells than Ireland.

Don't know how seriously I take that but it is true that Parcells was in Miami for the first few years of Ireland's tenure and, being who he was, he swung a big stick.

I wonder why Dodds backed out...

Apparently he's going to be very selective before choosing his first GM job. My fear is he heard about how much control Rhule was going to still have and wasn't totally on board with it. Maybe he just didn't think it was the right fit, however.

Believe Dodds is the 2nd to back out. Hope that’s not a sign that our opening isn’t desirable for whatever reason. 

I could have sworn there was a report after we fired Hurney saying our team was a very desirable GM spot. What happened? Not firing Hurney when we fired Ron was a huge mistake. Wasn’t Hurney a big reason why we hired Rhule? Now, the new GM won’t be able to get his “guy” and they probably realize Rhule has a ton of control. Could this turn ugly for us?

      Bust alert - Eight NFL players running out of time to prove themselves entering 2026 season

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Bryce has improved each season, fwiw, statistically.  His slope is rising.  (Not to say I am high on him--I am not, but I have not given up on him--nor have I given up on XL, but damn he pisses me off)  CJ's slope is descending.   I was never a Penix fan.  Never, I say!

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      That is definitely the down side of all this--on paper, I would offer up a second rounder for him if he passed my interviews.  He has already gone through (seriously?) a treatment program for gambling addiction.  I just see him as a first round talent that we could get with a second rounder.  If I liked Bryce and felt good about paying him $50m per, I would not touch Sorsby.  If Bryce regresses or stays the same--he is going to expect to be paid.  Sorsby, in my view, has a better long-term future as an NFL QB.  He is big, mobile, has good arm strength, and makes wise decisions (on the field) with the football.  He is a great dual threat, RPO QB.   I think he is a perfect solution for the backup qb position and insurance for Bryce should he get injured or suck.  Pickett?  King?  yikes.

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Hard to say--they are very unpredictable--this article came out last night---after our comments:  (ESPN)   How has the NFL approached NCAA players with gambling violations in the past? David Purdum, sports betting reporter: Quarterback Hunter Dekkers and wide receiver Kayshon Boutte were found to have committed gambling violations while playing college football, and both were allowed to pursue NFL careers. Dekkers was the projected starting quarterback at Iowa State but was ruled ineligible ahead of the 2023 season after an investigation found he had bet on at least one game involving the Cyclones (among other wagers that violated NCAA bylaws). The bet was just $15 on Iowa State to beat Oklahoma State in a 2021 game in which he did not play, but it led to the end of his Division I career. He played one season at Iowa Western Community College in 2024 before signing with the Saints as an undrafted free agent, and he spent last season on the practice squad. Boutte was arrested in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in January 2024 on charges of underage betting while at LSU. The arrest came roughly eight months after he had been drafted in Round 6 by the Patriots, and the charges were ultimately dropped. According to police, Boutte placed more than 8,900 wagers from April 2022 to May 2023, including betting on at least 17 college football games -- at least six of which involved LSU during that span. The NFL did not discipline Boutte.
