Two weeks ago in this space
Mark Duper Jersey , we reported that Dolphins owner Stephen Ross is undecided on the future of his football operation. As of last week, one key decision reportedly had been made. Ross now needs to make one more.V.P. of football operations Mike Tannenbaum is all but certain to be out, as Armando Salguero of the reported last week. The future of coach Adam Gase continues to be uncertain, for various reasons. Apart from Ross having a strong interest in Ravens coach John Harbaugh, the post-Tannenbaum front office could be impossible to staff, given that Gase holds full control over the football operation.And so the final day of the season has arrived, and the time has come for coaches to be fired or not fired, and as everyone looks for a surprise, some are suggesting that a Gase firing could be that surprise. While Gase may indeed be fired

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media suggests that Gase could be one of the top head-coaching candidates on the market, linking Gase specifically to Cleveland.That’s not as crazy as it would seem; the Browns have pursued Gase in the past. The real question becomes whether the team could sell Gase to the fan base and the local media after a pair of superficially lackluster seasons in South Florida, at a time when Gregg Williams has pulled the team to a final record of 7-8-1 or 8-7-1.Earlier this week, when discussing the future of the Cleveland coaching staff, I suggested that the best possible outcome for the Browns would be Nick Saban as head coach and Gase, a former Saban protege, as offensive coordinator. While Saban continues to sound like a guy who won’t leave Tuscaloosa, Cleveland could be Saban’s last, best chance to remove the biggest blemish from his coaching career
Womens Nat Moore Jersey , and it would be fitting to see a couple of former Dolphins coaches come together in an effort to make the Browns the kind of team that could eventually threaten Miami’s 1972 perfect season.So maybe the Browns would take only Gase. His work with Ryan Tannehill was impressive. The only problem is that Tannehill couldn’t stay on the field. Baker Mayfield can, and given what Gase has done with Tannehill, Jay Cutler, Peyton Manning, and even Tim Tebow, Gase could end up being the perfect guy to harness and refine a skill set and attitude that could make Mayfield one of the best to ever play the game. The Dolphins gave running back Mark Walton a second chance, notwithstanding the fact that he has three pending criminal cases and that, at best, he’ll be No. 3 on the depth chart this season.Walton’s on-field and off-field worlds will collide this week
Jordan Phillips Jersey , with a hearing in one of the prosecutions happening on the same day as the team’s mandatory minicamp.Via Adam H. Beasley of the , Walton won’t be missing practice for Wednesday hearing in his arrest on misdemeanor marijuana charges. “I will be appearing in court for Mr. Walton,” attorney Michael Gottlieb told Beasley. “He’s in constant contact with my offices. He’s an [exceptional] athlete, and I’d like to see him practice and resume his normal life as we litigate these unfortunate cases.”On Monday, a hearing will happen in a misdemeanor battery case pending against Walton, the first of three offseason arrests that eventually prompted the Bengals to cut the 2018 fourth-round draft pick. In that case, Walton stands accused grabbing a cell phone from a woman during a traffic dispute.The one case that won’t go to court this week is by far the most troubling of the three. Walton facesfelony charges of carrying a concealed weapon, resisting arrest without violence, marijuana possession

The incident culminated in high-speed pursuit followed by a footrace that included Walton being tased and then getting up and continuing to run away from police.Miami’s decision to embrace Walton is every bit as confusing as Oakland’s recent decision to sign Richie Incognito. Usually, only significant football talent earns a second chance. As to both Walton and Incognito, it’s fair to question whether they’re good enough to get the special treatment that usually is reserved for star players.Like Incognito, Walton surely is facing a suspension from the league office for his trifecta of arrests, regardless of how the incidents are resolved by the courts.
