A Rollercoaster of Coaches
The Miami Dolphins have had a coaching carousel that would make a carnival owner jealous. It's like they're trying to find the philosopher's stone of coaching, or at least a decent quarterback. Let’s break it down:
Tip: Keep your attention on the main thread.
The Early Days: Back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth and the Dolphins were just a twinkle in Joe Robbie’s eye, there were some coaches. We won’t dwell on them, because, let's face it, they probably wore suits made of wool and thought a forward pass was a fashion faux pas.
The Shula Era: Then came Don Shula. The man, the myth, the legend. He basically turned the Dolphins into a dynasty. It was like the Patriots, but before the Patriots were cool. He won Super Bowls, set records, and probably had a secret handshake with a dolphin.
Post-Shula Blues: After Shula, it was like a game of coaching musical chairs. Coaches came and went faster than you can say “turnover.” Some were good, some were bad, and most were somewhere in between. It was a rollercoaster of emotions for Dolphins fans, with more downs than ups.
The Modern Era: And then there's the present. We've got coaches with fancy playbooks and even fancier haircuts. They talk about analytics and schemes like they're ordering a latte. But can they win a Super Bowl? That's the million-dollar question.
So, How Many Coaches Have There Been?
You're probably wondering, "Okay, smart guy, how many coaches is that anyway?" Well, buckle up, because I'm about to blow your mind (or at least mildly impress you). The Dolphins have had a whopping 13 head coaches in their history. That's a lot of headsets and clipboards.
Tip: Reading in chunks improves focus.
