So the gm states philosophical differences is the reason he was fired. How can a puppet have those kind of differences with his puppet master? He hired his entire staff. Not 1 guy came from Baltimore which usually never happens, not even a qc coach. He wasn;t calling plays offensively or defensively. Jack,Romeo,and Nick were on the headsets during games advising him on decisions. Yet,and the end of the season, with the worse offense in the entire nfl, you,the gm, want him to fire the oc you hired for him? Nick could've done that since he hire him. Nick came up with the lame excuse of philosophical differences. Based on Nick during the hiring process again this year, until they hired Lovie, he was again trying to hire the staff for other potential head coaches. I like Lovie being hired, could've hired him the year before. Could've hired a number of people as long as you let them pick their coaches. Coaches in the nfl know who they want to work with probably better than a guy who has been in 1 organization,under the greatest head coach his entire career. What made Daboll appealing is yes, he came off the Patriots tree, but he's been different places in the nfl. He's just not in the Patriots frame of philosophy.
