He needs better than what he had in 2004. And yeah I know he had the leagues leading rusher and a top 5 defense.
Rivers has a good arm- what happened to him? I thought you need a good arm to bat NE? he also had the benefit of LT and being at home yet he still played ALOT worse than "noodle arm" did on the road last week. Chad has enough arm strength, he just needs more weapons around him.
Your first paragraph is the other side of the coin..and I see your point. Your second paragraph, I totally disagree with. You are talking about the Dolphins...who slowly but surely are becoming the NY KNICKS of the NFL. Trying to make sense of their timeline is a waste of time. When a Owner goes on national tv asking the public for input on the direction of a franchise...the only thing left for him is one of those really bright white jackets...the straight ones.
Schotts is good, and one day will be a solid head coach, but this would be a mistake for the Fins, he is not ready to clean up that mess yet.
