Pep Hamilton promoted to offensive coordinator and Frank Ross has been retained as special teams coordinator.

Give it to Brian Flores.

What he said to Tua was stupid of him and very foolish but I think he deserves a 2nd chance to redeem himself.

And Josh McCown? He should have to earn it. He's never had any NFL Coordinator Experience let alone an NFL HC resume. It shouldn't be given to him because there are black coaches out here already more deserving than he is. He should have to climb the NFL coaching ranks just like everyone else.
He'll be a head coach again...even if he has to take a step back and be a coordinator in the meantime.

^^^^^^^ This!!! ^^^^^^^^

you don't crap on the place that fired you, and call the rest of the people you want to hire you "racists", and expect to be hired to display "the racists' product on the field... what an idiot!!

He was only an idiot for telling Tua he wished they would've drafted Mac Jones instead of him. That was very idiotic.

But standing up for his rights as a black man in this Country wasn't "idiotic". It was the right thing to do.

No matter how many times MLK Jr, Malcolm-X and Rosa Parks (so many others) were jailed (and punished) for doing the right thing etc they always stood up for themselves and their people (and rightfully so).

Same with Brian Flores. He had no other option other than to stand up for what's right and not only for himself but so many other black coaches (past, present, future) because at the time of his firing there were 32 NFL white owners but yet only 1 black head coach in Mike Tomlin? That is the definition of pure NFL white racism.

Nothing he's done since being fired is to be called and considered as "idiotic" and regardless if he's forever punished by the NFL for exposing them as racist or not he should never regret it. He did the right thing. He's a leader not a sheep and he's earned my respect for it (same as Kaep did).
When I listened to the beginning of the interview, his claims were generalized and he spewed the social justice rhetoric...his attorney did the same when he interrupted. When you bring a lawsuit against someone you are making very specific claims based on rather concrete evidence. Maybe Flores has this but it wasn't immediately put forward during the beginning of the interview. To me, it means that the evidence isn't very strong and thus the lawsuit is likely frivolous.

With all that said
1. I can't imagine him not getting another head coaching opportunity in the near future, even if it means taking a brief step back, provided he doesn't piss off everyone.
2. I bet that I am going through worse discrimination than Flores and it's basically ignored. So I'm having a hard time caring about his plight.

He showed other teams that he will go outside of the organization and air their dirty laundry. Moronic.

He showed other teams that he will sue them for a perceived injustice...at every stop he went this time other white candidates were turned away too. Moronic.

BTW, he didn't "stand up for his rights as a black man". He exercised his unalienable rights that he holds as an American.

learn the difference between the likes of Malcom X and that of Ms. Parks and Dr. King before lumping them together in the same lecture.

Colin Kaepernick possessed a pulpit to inspire all people, and used it to divide people against each other. He is a one percenter who makes a living via paid appearances & ads by garnering support of people he says cannot be one percenters themselves. he is not better than past race hucksters like Sharpton. Lee, and Jesse.

100%... you know when someone is serious when they list A, B, C as specifics, and those grievances have a 1, 2, and 3 to support said grievances.

he even said that the hired coaches were good choices.

Texans finally getting something right, Lovie Smith is a good hire (promotion) then promoting Pep Hamilton this will give the offense much needed support to allow Davis Mills and the offense grow progressively.

The last few years between the Texans and Dolphins has been entertaining with all the trades.

Don't the Williams sisters and Gloria Estefan own the dolphins?
Gloria and Emilio Estefan own 0.5%, , Venus Williams 0.5%, Serena Williams 0.5 %, Fergie 0.5% and Marc Anthony 1%. He got Jennifer Lopez's 0.5% in their divorce. The family of Wayne Huizenga owns 5% percent, the remaining 92%belong to Ross.

What percentage of "female, asian, indian, Native Americans, Native Hawai'ians and other Pacific Islanders, Alaska Natives, Transgendered persons" play in the NFL in comparison to the over 50% black population of players who play in the NFL?

And what percentage of "female, asian, indian, Native Americans, Native Hawai'ians and other Pacific Islanders, Alaska Natives, Transgendered persons" are applying for NFL League Interviews while getting declined time and time again?

Plesse.

Show me your statistical facts.

There are 32 White NFL Owners but yet only 2 Black Head Coaches and the rest are being embarrassed and degraded during the Rooney Rule and if you find that "funny"? Well then to each our own.

(but I find your post above as being insensitive because there's nothing sarcastic about the NFLs racism against black HCs).

Minorities. Now you want to segregate all non black minorities as lesser?
The vast majority of players have no interest in coaching. So you could have a 90% black player league and still not have many non white coaches.
A large # of coaches are failed white players.
One could argue white players are discriminated against. And as usual, your #s are wrong...
