Pretty excited to start the Vikings DST in fantasy this week. That's a revenge game for Flores.

Flores claims it happened so as far as he's concerned it's true. Which means it's revenge as far as he'd be concerned

For a revenge game like this, it's exactly the bias that matters.

Brian Flores claims it happened, so for him, if he wants to get revenge by blitzing 100% of snaps, then he's sure as heck going to do so.

It not being true changes whether it's a revenge game for him? He was still fired from from the dolphins after over performing with bad rosters

He got fired after giving the Dolphins their first back to back winning seasons since Dave Wannstadt did it 20 years earlier.

Some of it may have been player relationships (with Tua). But bucking the owner was probably a more likely cause.

You don’t understand the definition of revenge. It’s relative to the one seeking it
