When the Miami Dolphins announced the firing of offensive line coach Patrick Flaherty earlier today, they said it was a “football decision”. It was surprising because most of the time you don’t see coaches fired four days into camp. Naturally social media has been alive with the wonderment of why this happened.
While some fans are openly questioning or at the very least asking if Brian Flores’ coaching evaluation decisions should be called into, well, question, the real message here should be directed at the players. Not just the ones who play offensive line.
Dumping players is nothing new.
