Why is Mike Nolan out of Denver and immediately in Miami?


There doesn't seem to be any direct answer right now for the "friendly" parting of ways between Josh McDaniels and Mike Nolan. At this point, it's just a little frustrating that the Broncos have gone through 5 defensive coordinators in the last 5 years. I believe that Nolan was a step in the right direction for the new look Broncos, and I'm at a loss for why this move was made. Was Nolan unhappy with McDaniels? The only thing we do know is that Nolan didn't leave to move up the food chain and take a head coaching job, he landed in Miami almost immediately taking the same position he held in Denver as the Dolphins defensive coordinator. I intend to get to the bottom of this SOON!
It's swirling around that McDaniels will hire Dean Peas. Peas is the former New England Patriots defensive coordinator that McDaniels, while Patriots offensive coordinator, worked with when the Patriots went unbeaten in the regular season. Another ex-Patriot hired.... Surprise, surprise!!

No joke. McDaniels is going to run all that is good out of Denver. On his current plate to push out, Marshall, Scheffler, and now Nolan. I posted one about this on my blog too. Let me know your thoughts.
