Yeah, Miami hired Bill Parcells. But not to coach – at least that’s what the deal is at the moment. Parcells is now the “executive vice-president of football operations,” whatever the hell that is. But unless his title includes a slash and “head coach” with it, he will not be giving the Dolphins what they really need, and what he’s best at. It’s difficult to figure, at this moment, just what will happen in Miami. Will they fire Cameron and hire someone else? Will they fire Cameron and have Parcells take over on the sidelines? Or will they keep Cameron? And when will this all happen? We can’t say, because they don’t know.

Does Cameron deserve to come back next season? I may be out on a limb here, but I’d say yes. Cameron inherited a bad team with a quarterback problem. Yes, Miami lost its first 13 games this season, and yes, several of those were bad losses. But the Dolphins also lost six games by three points. And we can’t say that this team quit on Cameron, and in going 0-13, that’s saying something.

Might Parcells choose to, or get talked into, coaching the Dolphins next season? It’s possible, and it would probably be the best thing for the team. But Cameron at least deserves a second look, if not a second season, at Miami.
