dbatesman Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/10259808/miami-dolphins-gm-jeff-ireland-part-ways Jeff Ireland no longer Dolphins GM Updated: January 7, 2014, 6:50 PM ET By James Walker | ESPN.com The Miami Dolphins have severed ties with general manager Jeff Ireland, the team announced Tuesday. The Dolphins described the move as a mutual parting of ways. However, Ireland was firmly in the hot seat after five consecutive non-winning seasons in Miami. Ireland spent more than $200 million in free agency only to finish 8-8 this season. "I want to personally thank Jeff for his hard work and dedication in building the team over the past six years," Ross said. "After a series of discussions, we both felt that it was in our mutual best interest to part ways. Jeff was a loyal and dedicated member of the Dolphins and we wish him and his family nothing but the best." Earlier this week, the Dolphins also fired offensive coordinator Mike Sherman after two seasons. Bad news for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish actually have talent, they've just loaded up on some sh*t contracts. Amuses me that the best player on the team was brought in by Parcells. Parcells. Parcells. Parcells.
