I think the s**t the Dolphins allegedly did is worst than the Giants bringing him in for a pointless interview.

If the part with Ross is true this lawsuit should have happened a long time ago and should be directed at Ross. I mean a bonus for losing games. That's lifetime ban worthy. Granted there are always two sides to every story.

Also trying to rope him into tampering is insane. WTF is wrong with Ross?
Say what you want about Jed and his bald spot but he would never do this.

Again I refuse to judge one on the words of another. Let's hear from Ross before we judge the man. Let the facts come to light.

The giants is the result of a counterintuitive rule, and this is a perfect example of that. The Dolphins is a huge mess. Flores should look even better dealing with all that b******t.

What is the Broncos role in this, besides Elway being plastered?

They hired Fangio the following day. The then owner and Elway showed up an hour late drunk and then the next day they hired Fangio. Looks bad

Him getting fired from Dolphins mad suspect considering they had their first back to back winning seasons in over 20 years

Flores should have cooled down and waited a week, severing employment opportunities isn't wise.

If his allegations are proven out, Ross needs to be forced to sell the team. What a s**t show.

He stands to make more from this lawsuit then he'd make in 20 years as a coach. I don't blame him one bit for being pissed off.

Sounds like the dolphins owner is about be gone if proven he offered 100K to toss games. and sounds like they were tampering with Deshaun Watson heavy. the rest isn't surprising. More about putting a spotlight on it then thinking he can win any money over the s**tty staged interviews. Good s**t Flores.

I don't get the racism part. What am I missing?
Your owner offering you a bonus to lose is not racism. Stupidity yes but racism
Hell most of our fan base want us to lose for a better draft position if we aren't making the playoffs. Are they racist too?
