Belichick had a losing record at one point. It's not how you begin, but how you finish.

Everybody from his coaching tree has finished fired with a losing record.

True, but Flores is the only one that finished with a seven game winning streak, and bested Bill Belichick in the win-loss column (including sweeping him) during the Patriots hey day.

So what are the chances you bring someone unemployed like that in and say show us what you can do the rest of the year and make a job offer from there?

He’s not unemployed, he’s with the Steelers.

I think people overrate Flores because he was fired at a time when he probably didn't deserve to be.

But if you think he's something special, I'm not sure you're looking at the whole picture.

He would make a great DC

[Shocker]

I really like Brian Flores.  The man can coach and has a no nonsense attitude and toughness that would help this team immensely 

[Catsfan69]

I wouldn't hate it like the Rhule hire.

Did he come from the Shanahan coaching tree?  That's where our next coach needs to come from.

No to anyone from the Belichik tree. There are also too many known negatives with Flores. As far as the other 2 you mentioned, as I have said before...I am afraid that Leftwich gets too much credit...he has had Arians (who is still around in Tampa) and Brady.  Dorsey has not proven anything/built anything yet.  So far he has just not screwed up the offense he inherited.

I can see your points on all fronts, LP, and I respect them.  Definitely question marks to be concerned with in each case, but then I ask...  what is the best hire then?  I feel like we really screwed up by holding onto Rhule this long because outside of those guys and Payton, i just dont know of any surefire candidate everyone would love and feel confident in.  I think Daboll wouodve been a homerun, and he's proving to be now.

And ITT, I really was only focusing on the younger/less proven candidates...  Payton is probably my number one target because he's proven, has a proven system, and would instantly bring respect back to our franchise.  I hate his guts, but that could all change very quickly if he came on here.

This man was pulling miracles in Miami with an abysmal roster. He was 24-25 in his ‘rebuild’ years before the sleazeball owner Ross canned him.

 

 He’s a leader of men- Dolphins players were livid when he got canned

He has first hand experience with undermining owners

Worked with Belichick and now Tomlin, two of the best in the game

Proven track record on stabilizing abysmal franchise

If we’re not going to get an offensive minded coach then I’m taking Flores over Demico Ryans

A jerk that turned off players and coaches and got the benefit of coaching in the worst division in the NFL? And then he played the race card when he got rightfully fired? That is the Panthers mindset though. Let's get a retread that someone else didn't want (Darnold, Baker, McAdoo)....yeah, that's the ticket. Simply horrible idea.  

[Mr. Scot]

The problem with a lot of Belichick disciples is they come in acting like Belichick from day one despite not havin earned that kind of respect yet.

The stories that came out about Flores Miami tenure certainly fit that description.

Many fans are hoping like hell we end up with a top 3 pick so we can snag a QB. U really want Flores as our head coach with a rookie QB? The same guy who didn’t try to hide the fact that he wasn’t a Tua fan and would rather roll with Fitzmagic. I mean sure, in the very short term that’s fine. But it sounded like he straight up didn’t want Tua. Not exactly the kind of guy I want with a potential rookie franchise QB.

Sounds like how John Fox would act lol
