Dolphins’ Mike McDaniel is moving towards hot seat quickly | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

I, I THINK THAT POSITIVE IS THAT UM, THAT WAS A MISERABLE EXPERIENCE. UH, IT WAS EMBARRASSING UM FLAT OUT UM AND IN THAT THERE’S NOWHERE TO HIDE, YOU KNOW, I I I WAS REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING TO SEEING UH, THE STUFF THAT WE’VE REALLY WORKED ON DILIGENTLY, AND I DIDN’T SEE ANY OF IT, AND THAT’S A PROBLEM, YOU KNOW? I I WOULD SAY THE GOOD NEWS AND THE POSITIVE IS UM, I DON’T I DON’T SEE HOW IT COULD BE WORSE. UM, AND I I ALSO BELIEVE IN UM, YOU KNOW, THE COACHES AND PLAYERS TO GET IT FIXED. POSITIVE IS IT CAN’T BE ANY WORSE THAN IT WAS. THERE’S NOWHERE TO GO. I DON’T KNOW, IT COULD GET WORSE. YOU KNOW HOW IT GETS WORSE AFTER THE GAME, YOU GET FIRED AND THAT’S WHAT MIKE, MCDANIELS ON TRACK FOR. AND I ALWAYS AND I UNDERSTAND WHEN COACHES GET FIRED. IT AFFECTS MANY LIVES, BUT WE’RE NOT NAIVE. IF WE IGNORE THE FACT THAT 25% OF THE LEAGUE TURNS OVER EVERY SINGLE YEAR, BECAUSE ONCE WE GET INTO THE GAMES, WE GO THROUGH OFFSEASON MODE WHERE WE’RE TALKING ABOUT POSSIBILITIES AND CHANGES THAT HAVE BEEN MADE AND NEW FACES AND NEW PLACES AND ALL THE WONDER OF WHAT CAN HAPPEN. AND THEN IT’S TIME TO PLAY THE GAMES AND FOR EVERY GAME, TEAM WINS A TEAM LOSES AND IF YOU LOSE ENOUGH, THERE’S GOING TO BE CHANGES. AND YOU KNOW, DEVIN I’VE BEEN SAYING I WASN’T SURE OF MANY THINGS GOING INTO THE SEASON 1 THING, I WAS SURE OF THINK THIS THIS TALK TALK TALK BECAUSE LET’S JUST TALK, IT’S NOT ACTION. IT’S TALK. WE’RE GOING TO TALK WELL, WE’RE GOING TO CHANGE A CULTURE. WE’RE GOING TO DO THIS, WE’RE GOING TO AND IT NEVER CHANGES. WE’RE GOING TO DO ALL THESE THINGS AND IT NEVER CHANGES. WE’RE GOING TO DO THIS, WE’RE GOING TO DO THIS. IT’S LIKE THE GUYS, I’M GOING TO GO TO THE GYM EVERY SINGLE DAY, STARTING TOMORROW. AND I’M GOING TO TALK ABOUT AND THEN IT’S THE ALARM GOES OFF AND THEY DON’T GO TO THE GYM, RIGHT? IT’S JUST TALK. AND I FEEL LIKE WITH THE DOLPHINS IT’S JUST TALK AND TALK AND TALK. AND THEY NEVER GET ANY BETTER AND YOU THROW ON TOP OF THAT GETTING YOUR ASS KICKED, RIGHT OUT OF THE GATES. IN AN UGLY FASHION, THE WORST LOSS OF THE WEEKEND. GOOD LUCK. COMING BACK FROM THAT. NOW THEIR SCHEDULE ISN’T ISN’T RIDICULOUSLY DIFFICULT. THEY DON’T HAVE THE SAME THING AS OFF TEAMS. THEY GOT THE PATRIOTS COMING TO TOWN THIS WEEKEND. THEY COULD GET TO 1 IN 1, RIGHT? BUT MAN, THAT THAT 1 LEFT A MARK. SO UH AND BEFORE WE ANSWER THE KEY FACTOR FICTION QUESTION, JUST YOUR THOUGHTS GENERALLY ON WHAT WE SAW UNFOLD IN INDIANAPOLIS AS THE DOLPHINS. JUST EYES. YEAH, I THINK THE THE NUMBER 1 PHASE COMING OUT A WEEK. 1 IS IT’S ONLY WEEK 1 BUT HOW YOU PERFORM MATTERS YOU, THIS IS THE OFFSEASON HOW THIS TEAM FINISHED A YEAR AGO WAS WASN’T GOOD INJURIES AND DIFFERENT THINGS YOU FINISHED THE SEASON AND YOU HAVE A LOT OF OF KIND OF DIFFERENT THINGS GOING ON. YOU GOT TYREEK HILL. DOES HE WANT TO BE HERE? 2 IS HIS LEADERSHIP GOING TO STEP UP AND MY BROTHER CALLED THIS GAME AND HE AND HE TOLD ME FROM BEING OUT THERE AND BEING AROUND THE TEAM. IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS SO MUCH GOOD ENERGY. IT SEEMED LIKE TYREEK HILL TALKING ABOUT HIS LEADERSHIP AND THEY TALKED ABOUT IT DURING THE BROADCAST AND ALL THE POSITIVE THINGS THAT THEY COULD COMING INTO THE GAME. AND HE WAS LIKE, MAN, I REMEMBER, HE TEXTS ME. HE’S LIKE MAN I THINK THEY MIGHT BE ALL RIGHT. AND I SAID NO, DON’T FALL INTO THE TRAP OF BEING AROUND THE TEAM. OF COURSE THEY’RE POSITIVE, THEY HAVEN’T PLAYED A GAME YET. I WAS LIKE THE DOLPHINS ARE GOING TO STINK THIS YEAR AND THAT’S WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE. THEY LOOKED LIKE THEIR TEAM THAT THEIR SECONDARY HAS BEEN PATCHED TOGETHER BECAUSE OF SO MANY DIFFERENT INJURIES. THE TEAM OFFENSIVELY. ALL YOU’VE HAD TO DEAL WITH. IS DOES TYREEK WANT TO BE HERE? DOES HE NOT WANT TO BE HERE? WE’RE SOFT. WE CAN’T RUN. YOU HAVE SO MANY DIFFERENT THINGS THAT GO ON. NOW YOU GET OUT THERE AGAINST ANOTHER TEAM THAT I WOULD SAY IS SEARCHING TO SEE HOW THEY’RE GOING TO PERFORM DANIEL JONES, IS IN THERE, ALL THESE DIFFERENT AND YOU COME OUT YOU JUST GET EMBARRASSED THAT TO ME SPEAKS VOLUMES AND I THINK THIS IS A BIG GAME FOR THEM BECAUSE THEY’RE GOING AGAINST ANOTHER TEAM THAT SEARCHING FOR WHO THEY DIDN’T WIN LAST WEEK DIDN’T PLAY BUT NOT THE GAME, DIDN’T GO THE WAY THEY WANTED TO. SO IF YOU COME OUT AND YOU DON’T LOOK GOOD AGAINST THE PATRIOTS, I I MEAN IT’S IT’S TRULY TROUBLE OVER THERE IN YOU GOT A PROBLEM TOO, BECAUSE SHORT WEEK BILLS THURSDAY NIGHT. SHORT WEEK BILLS, THURSDAY NIGHT, IT COULD BE 0 AND 3. AND IF IT GETS TO 0 AND 3, MAN, AND THEN YOU GOT A LONG BREAK, YOU GOT THE THURSDAY TO MONDAY IF THEY GET TO 0 AND 3. I DON’T KNOW HOW QUICKLY. STEPHEN ROSS WOULD PULL THE TRIGGER ON TERMINATION, BUT DIDN’T HE FIRE? TONY. SPARANO LIKE 4 GAMES INTO THE SEASON AFTER A LOSS IN ENGLAND. SO LOOK, I KNEW THIS WAS COMING. THE THE FACT THAT TYREEK HILL SAYS TO THE WORLD, I WANT OUT. THEN WHEN HE DECIDES SHOULDN’T DO THAT. THEY WELCOME HIM BACK. WHERE THIS IS GOING TO GO, HE’S GOING TO BE THE DEVONTE ADAMS OF THIS YEAR’S TRADE DEADLINE. HE’S GOING TO BE TRADED TO SOMEONE ELSE UNLESS THEY START RIPPING OFF VICTORIES. AND THEY’RE IN THE PLAYOFF MIX. HE’S GOING TO BE GONE BECAUSE HE’S NOT GOING GOING TO TEAR UP THE LAST YEAR OF HIS CONTRACT. NOW HE’S GOT A SEPARATE COMPLICATION BECAUSE TMZ REPORTED YESTERDAY IS A STRANGE WIFE HAS ACCUSED HIM OF 8, DIFFERENT INCIDENTS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, SO THAT MAY MAKE HIM A LITTLE RADIOACTIVE ON THE TRADEMARK IT DEPENDING UPON WHERE THAT GOES, SO FACTOR FICTION FACTOR FICTION. THE DOLPHINS ARE AS BAD AS THEY LOOKED. I I I THINK THAT’S A FACT. I I I THINK THE DOLPHINS HAVE TOO MANY THINGS GOING ON. YOU HAVE DIFFERENT PLAYERS WHO LOST TERRON ARMSTEAD LAST YEAR UP FRONT IN YOUR ON YOUR OFFENSIVE LINE. I, I TRULY THINK I LIKE MIKE MCDANIEL BUT I THINK MIKE MCDANIEL AND HIS STYLE OF COACHING, HE NEEDS STRONG LEADERSHIP AND YOU DON’T GET LEADERSHIP FROM SIGNING FREE AGENTS AND BRINGING DIFFERENT PEOPLE IN. AND I THINK THAT’S WHAT MIAMI HAS BEEN KNOWN. FOR CHRIS SIMS HAS A VERY FAMOUS PHRASE THAT MIAMI BRINGS IN ALL THE SUPERSTARS IN THE SUPERSTARS GET OVER ON DIFFERENT. WORDS IN THAT SITUATION, BUT COLORFUL LANGUAGE, YES, VERY COLORFUL LANGUAGE, UH, WHEN HE TALKS ABOUT HIM AND I THINK THAT’S THEIR ISSUE MORE THAN MIKE MCDANIEL BEING THEIR ISSUE. BUT HE’LL, BLAME. BY THE WAY, IT WAS JOE PHILBIN. WHO WAS FIRED AFTER 4 GAMES? NOT TONY SPARANO. TONY. SPARANO WAS FIRED IN DECEMBER 2011. AFTER A 4 AND 9 START PHILBIN WAS FIRED AFTER A 1 AND 3 START. HE WAS THE SUCCESSOR TO PIRANHA AND YES, THE DOLPHINS ARE AS BAD AS THEY LOOKED. I HAVEN’T HAD A CHANCE TO WRITE ABOUT THIS YET AT PFD. THERE WAS JUST SO MUCH GOING ON YESTERDAY, BUT I SAW STEPHEN, HOLDER OF ESPN.COM HAD SOME QUOTES FROM XAVIEN HOWARD WHO DIDN’T PLAY AT ALL LAST YEAR. HAD SPENT HIS CAREER WITH THE DOLPHINS LANDS WITH THE COLTS AND HE SAID, WE KNEW HOW TO PLAY THEM AND HOWARD’S, GOT THE INSIGHT. HE WAS THERE. YOU TAKE AWAY 2 OF HIS FIRST READ AND THEN IT’S PANIC MODE. IF YOU TAKE AWAY HIS FIRST READ, IT’S PANIC MODE. THAT’S WHAT XAVIEN HOWARD SAID. AND THIS, THIS WHOLE 2 OF THING, AND THIS IS CHRIS’S CURRENT CRUSADE. GENERALLY WHETHER IT’S TUA JARED GOFF ANY QUARTERBACK THAT GOT A MARKET, LEVEL CONTRACT IS GOING TO BE HELD TO A MARKET LEVEL STANDARD. AND IF YOU’RE NOT GETTING IT DONE, YOU’RE GOING TO GET CALLED OUT AND THE TEAM IS THE 1 THAT NEEDS TO GET CALLED OUT. BECAUSE IT’S NOT LIKE THE GUY ROBBED THE BANK TO GET THE MONEY. IT’S NOT LIKE THE GUY GOT TO DECIDE, YOU KNOW, WRITE YOUR OWN TICKET, THE TEAM GAVE IT TO HIM, THE ANY LIKE, I, I REMEMBER SAYING THIS AT THE TIME, THAT THEY GAVE HIM THE CONTRACT, WHO ELSE IS GOING TO PAY HIM THAT. WHO ARE YOU BIDDING? AGAINST? WHEN YOU GIVE TO A TON OF IO OF 55 MILLION A YEAR? WHAT DO YOU THINKING THERE? IF HE’S A FREE AGENT, NO 1’S PAYING IN THAT THE DURABILITY FACTOR ALONE IS ENOUGH TO GET A TEAM TO SAY I’M NOT READY TO MAKE THAT KIND OF A COMMITMENT AT THE MOST IMPORTANT POSITION IN THE IN THE GAME. SO I THINK THE DOLPHINS ARE AS BAD AS THEY LOOKED, THEY USUALLY LOOK SOFT WHEN IT’S COLD. THEY LOOKED SOFT. IN A CLIMATE CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT. IT’S ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE AND I COULD SEE VRABEL TAKING THE PATRIOTS DOWN THERE AND THE MANTRA FOR THE WEEK IS GOING TO BE HIT THEM IN THE MOUTH, HIT THE IN THE MOUTH AND THROW EVERYTHING WE HAVE AT THEM PHYSICALLY AND THEY WILL BREAK. YEAH, I I AGREE WITH YOU 100%. LIKE I I’VE PLAYED IN NEW ENGLAND. WHEN YOU GO AND YOU PLAY IN MIAMI, YOU PLAY DOWN IN THERE. IT’S IT’S WARM. IT’S THE TALK HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND VERY WELL, GREW UP IN THAT SAME CULTURE OF AND AND NEW ENGLAND. THEY SAY SQUISHED, A FISH AND I THINK THAT IS GOING TO BE THE THEME THAT THEY’RE GOING TO GO IN THERE AND THEY’RE GOING TO WANT TO BE THE HAMMER EXPECT DEFENSIVELY. FOR THEM TO BE AGGRESSIVE BLITZING COMING DOWNHILL. AND I WOULD EXPECT JOSH MCDANIELS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN LAST WEEK OF RUNNING THE FOOTBALL AND TRYING TO CREATE A POWER GAME TO TRY TO GO OUT THERE AND PLAY MIAMI. SO I THINK IT’S A BIT. I THINK IT’S A BIG WEEK FOR BOTH THOSE TEAMS BUT
