Matt Patricia is gone, and so is the GM who ran Jim Caldwell out of town to give Patricia the job.: Dan Quinn said Caldwell's 36-28 record (with two playoff appearances) wasn't good enough. So, he sent Caldwell packing and brought in Patricia, who went 13-29-1 in three seasons. Quinn and Patricia are now officially unemployed. Detroit OC Darrell Bevell takes over the train wreck that they left behind.

If "Number of Offspring" was a HOF category, he'd be a lock.

As a lifelong (and long-suffering) Dolphins fan, it brought me great pleasure to see Miami stick the final knife in the King.

Flores bringing Caldwell on staff in Miami was a great decision.

I wondered if they did that on purpose, just to keep her out of a possible contact situation in the case of a return.

So, I missed the setup, but I'm here for the punchline, if that's allowed.
Celtics in 5.

Hate the bubble, not the Association.
That was a sad paraphrase, and I'm worse for executing it.

His performance last year epitomized the "hanging on too long" trope for me. I watched that 4-int game against the Chiefs and just felt bad for everybody involved. I was somewhat surprised to see Reich so enthusiastic about bringing Rivers to the Colts; I know they have history, but I thought Reich would be more critical in his evaluation.

If Bortles could have grown a decent mustache, he might still be in the league.

I almost posted that one, but really didn't want it to be my "return to Sportsfilter" post.

2016 has been a banner year for losing very entertaining and gifted performers in all areas. It can stop now.
