The thing is though every coaching job that opens up is because the prior guy got fired. So there’s never going to be an optimal situation.NN1Badboy wrote: ↑November 24th, 2025, 10:27 pm I may be a little bias here because I am tired of all the constant changes with our team and would like to see some continuity for a few years. We are on the cusp of being really really special.
IMO if he is smart, he will remain right where he is. And here is my reasoning. Of course everyone would love to be a head coach.
I'm sure it's every coordinators dream. But, there are so many coordinators who have taken head coaching jobs recently that really haven't worked out. Just look at guys like Robert Saleh, Aaron Glenn and our very own Brandon Staley and Rahim Morris for example. Some guys are just better coordinators than they are head coaches. Even offensive coordinators often fail. Speaking of Miami, just look at Mike McDaniel or even guys like Josh McDaniel who has failed as a head coach in several places, to include L.A.
I think McVay and Shula have been together for a while and McVay has slowly promoted him to where he is now getting a lot of recognition. If he remains a top D coordinator for several years he will have his pick of any team he wants to coach and i'm sure there are a lot of better options than Miami right now. Why go there to fail? Saleh is a great coordinator but couldn't turn the Jets around. McDaniel has been great for the Patriots but can't turn around many other teams as a head coach.
Often times the grass looks greener on the other side until your standing in another yard.
