Dolphins coaches keep coming and going

The jump start Jeffrey Lurie thought he was getting by "releasing" Chip Kelly six days before the Eagles' final game did not stop Adam Gase from taking the job in South Florida rather than the one in South Philly.

Lots of reports said Lurie and his search committee wanted to conduct a second interview with Gase, who emerged as the most popular candidate among several of the seven NFL teams searching for a head coach. Instead, he went to Miami and accepted a five-year offer to try to lead the Dolphins out of a 21st-century funk in which they have made only three playoff appearances and won just one postseason game.
