He went 9-7 in his first year and played good football once they got Ricky Williams back from suspension. Then his star back was suspended for the 2006 season. Then they traded for a washed-up Culpepper instead of Brees, and they went 6-10.

He wasn't forced out or deemed to be a failure at the time. Miami still wanted him.
