FOR CRITICISM OF HOW HE HANDLED
THE FIRES.
BRAZIL'S SOVEREIGNTY IS
NONNEGOTIABLE AND THE PRESIDENT
FEELS LIKE OTHER COUNTRIES
ZEBRA SILL AS A COLONY.
FROM NEW YORK CITY TO THE
MAGIC CITY.
WE WILL DO EVERYTHING
POSSIBLE TO WIN EVERY GAME
EVERY WEEK.
THAT STARTS BY WINNING EVERY
DAY.
THIS MORNING DOLPHINS HEAD
COACH BRIAN FOR LESS ON THE
RECORD ON LIFE, LEADING AND
BUILDING A WINNER.
WHEN IT COMES TO DOLPHINS
HEAD COACH BRIAN FLORES, HE IS
MORE THAN A FOOTBALL COACH.
IN A SPECIAL TWO PART
SERIES, JIM BERRY SITS DOWN
WITH THE COACH TO TALK ABOUT
MORE THAN PASSING AND TACKLING.
HERE IS THE MAN, BRIAN FLORES.
THE GAME IS SOMETHING THAT I
ENJOY.
I'M A PHYSICAL PERSON BY
NATURE.
Reporter: DON'T LET BRIAN
FLORES' SOFT SPOKEN WAY FOOL
YOU.
I HAD FOUR BROTHERS.
WATCH WRESTLING, GUYS ARE BODY
SLAMMING EACH OTHER.
Reporter: ADDITIONALLY HIS
RAMBUNCTIOUS NATURE DID NOT
INCLUDE FOOTBALL.
IS IT TRUE THE FIRST TIME
YOU PUT ON SHOULDER PADS YOU
PUT THEM ON BACKWARDS?
THAT IS TRUE.
YES.
PUT THEM ON BACKWARDS.
MY UNCLE, YOU NEED TO TURN
THOSE AROUND.
Reporter: NOR REST SOON
FIGURED OUT THE GAME PLAYING AT
BOSTON COLLEGE THEN STUDYING IT
AS A YOUNG WORKAHOLIC IN NEW
ENGLAND.
HE BECAME KNOWN AS THE PATRIOTS
2020 CLUB.
WORK 20 HOURS A DAY, MAKE 20
GRAND A YEAR.
IF THAT THE.
YOU LOVED IT?
YEAH.
Reporter: WHY?
TO DO A SMALL PART TO HELP
THE TEAM WIN WAS SOMETHING THAT
IS IMPORTANT TO ME.
IT'S SOMETHING THAT I ALWAYS --
I ALWAYS ENJOYED.
Reporter: FLORES PLAYED A
BIG PART IN NEW ENGLAND'S
VICTORY SHUTTING DOWN LA
OFFENSE.
HE WAS INTERVIEWING FOR HIS
DREAM JOB AT AN NFL HEAD COACH
AND HE DID THAT WITH A HEAVY
HEART KNOWING HIS MOM WAS IN
THE FINAL STAGES OF A BATTLE
WITH CANCER.
IT WAS A TOUGH TIME.
AT THE SAME TIME I KNEW THAT IF
I DIDN'T PUT MY BEST FOOT
FORWARD, FROM A WORK
STANDPOINT, INTERVIEW
STANDPOINT, GOES WHATEVER I WAS
DOING, I WOULDN'T BE -- I WOULD
BE DISAPPOINTING HER.
CAN'T DO THAT.
Reporter: WITH THE DOLPHINS,
FLORES WANTS TO BUILD A TEAM
THAT PUTS THE BEST FOOT FORWARD
ON A FOUNDATION OF TRUST.
YOU GOT TO GET 11 GUYS ON THE
SAME PAGE.
11 GUYS TO TRUST EACH OTHER.
THAT IS HARD TO DO.
I TELL THE PLAYERS IT'S HARD TO
GET TWO PLAYERS TO TRUST EACH
OTHER MUCH LESS 11.
THAT RESONATES.
Reporter: HE WANTS THE
PLAYERS TO TRUST THAT HE WILL
NOT PLAY FAVORITES.
WE WILL PLAY THE BEST
PLAYERS PERIOD.
I FIRMLY BELIEVE IN THAT.
WE DON'T JUST DO THINGS TO DO
THEM.
WHAT KIND OF MESSAGE DOES THAT
SEND.
Reporter: SO FAR HE IS ALL
BUSINESS.
HE ADMITS THAT HIS WIFE TELLS
HIM TO SMILE MORE DURING HIS
SESSIONS WITH THE MEDIA.
I HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR.
THIS IS -- MAYBE I DON'T SAY
THIS ENOUGH BUT THIS GAME IS
SUPPOSED TO BE A FUN GAME.
WE TRY TO -- WE TRY TO CREATE
AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE WE ARE
TOUGH, SMART, DISCIPLINED BUT
HAVING FUN.
IF THE PUNDITS ARE RIGHT,
THE DOLPHINS WON'T HAVE MUCH
FUN IN THE FUTURE WHILE HE
TRIES TO REBUILD THE FRANCHISE
WINNING TRADITION.
A LOT OF FOLKS AREN'T
EXPECTING MUCH OF THE DOLPHINS
THIS YEAR, NEXT YEAR MAYBE THE
YEAR AFTER.
HOW DO YOU TAKE THAT ON.
MY GOAL IS TO WIN EVERY WEEK
PERIOD.
WE WILL DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE
TO WIN EVERY GAME EVERY WEEK.
THAT STARTS BY WINNING
EVERYDAY.
IF WE CONTINUE TO BUILD GOOD
THINGS WILL HAPPEN.
I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT.
THE.
THAT WAS JIM BERRY
REPORTING.
YOU CAN HEAR MORE FROM BRIAN
FLORES TOMORROW NIGHT IN THE
