Mike McDaniel firmly on hot seat after Dolphins lose to Panthers | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

IT’S FRUSTRATING BECAUSE THERE’S A LOT OF TALKING AND WE NEED TO MAKE MAJOR AND DOING AND I DON’T THINK ANYBODY WANTS TO HEAR ME TALK ABOUT IT. UM, AS MUCH AS I DON’T FEEL LIKE SAYING IT, UH, CHANGE THE, THE STEADFAST REALITY THAT IS UH, YOU UH, YOU HAVE TO UM, GET BETTER AT THINGS OR YOU’LL UH, CONTINUE HAVING THE SAME RESULTS. MIKE MCDANIEL COACH OF THE DOLPHINS, IN THE AFTERMATH OF, SUNDAY’S LOSS TO THE PANTHERS. THAT’S THE KIND OF GAME THAT THE DOLPHINS, CHECK THE BOX ON A WIN. WE’VE, WE’VE FIGURED OUT WHAT THE DOLPHINS ARE. THEY BEAT THE TEAMS THEY SHOULD BE. THEY FEAST ON THE LESSER NFL FRANCHISE IS AND THEN WHEN IT’S TIME TO GO PLAY AN ELITE TEAM, WELL, DOESN’T WORK OUT. TO REVERSE THE NARRATIVE, THAT’S THE 1, YOU WANT TO REVERSE. NOT THE 1 WHERE WE BEAT THE BAD TEAMS, THEY WENT TO CAROLINA, THEY WERE UP 17, NOTHING AND IT ALL FELL APART, AND THE PANTHERS WON THE GAME AND THE WIN FROM LAST WEEK AGAINST THE JETS MIRROR. AND IT’S JUST A QUESTION. I THINK OF OF WHEN THE BIG CHANGES ARE GOING TO BE MADE AND WHO THE CHANGES WILL BE MADE WITH, IS IT GOING TO BE CHRIS GREER? THE GM IS GOING TO BE MIKE MCDANIEL. THE HEAD COACH IS GOING TO BE BOTH. OTHER. BUT IT JUST FEELS LIKE IT’S HEADING IN THAT DIRECTION DEVON. I FEEL LIKE IT’S THEIR BUY IS COMING UP IN A FEW WEEKS. THEY HAVE ANOTHER THURSDAY NIGHT GAME, WHICH IS THE MINI BUY WHERE YOU CAN HAVE AN OPENING TO MAKE A CHANGE. ASSUMING YOU EVEN DO THAT BECAUSE DYSFUNCTIONAL THINGS. SO BUT IT JUST FEELS LIKE IT’S COULD HAVE AN OPENING TO MAKE OF BAD TEAMS THAT HAVE FIRED GUYS WITH ONLY 1 WEEK TO TURN IT AROUND JUST BECAUSE STILL, WHAT BAD TEAMS DO. ENDING IN MIAMI FOR GREER, ANDOR MCDANIEL, ANDOR BOTH. YEAH, THAT WAS ROUGH SUNDAY. I I I’M SITTING THERE AND I’M TALKING TO MARIA AND WE’RE TALKING ABOUT, LIKE, THE BAD TEAMS AND THE COACHES AND I SAY TO HER, I GO I ACTUALLY THINK MCDANIELS GOING TO BE SAFE, AND THEN WE’RE UP 1 7. 0. YEAH, THAT WAS ROUGH SUNDAY. THEY WERE UP 17% OF WHERE THEY FINISHED IN DIVISION LIKE THEIR SCHEDULE, THEY’LL GET SOME GAMES. AND I THINK I SAID THE WAY THEY PLAY, SO THEY CAN GO AGAINST SOME OF THESE BAD TEAMS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT’S LIKE, OH WOW, THE DOLPHINS LOOK LIKE THEY’RE BACK AND THAT GAME ENDS AND I WAS LIKE, DAMN, LIKE THAT. LIKE, THAT WAS JUST A ROUGH LOSS, THE WAY, THE GAME HAD FLOWED, YOU’RE PLAYING AGAINST A TEAM THAT HAS STRUGGLED. YOU’RE JUST NOT, YOU’RE NOT BEARING THEM, PUTTING THEM AWAY. SO YEAH. I I DON’T KNOW WHAT EXACT CHANGES THAT WILL BE MADE, BUT THERE’S NO WAY FOR THE DOLPHINS, THE EXPECTATIONS THEY HAD COMING IN AND NOW YOU LOOK UP IN THIS DIVISION AND YOU’RE LIKE, OH NO, TOM, BRADY LEFT. THE DIVISION BECAME OPEN. WE HAVE GOT TO DEAL WITH JOSH ALLEN. AND YOU MEAN TO TELL ME NOW THE THE NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS ARE GOING TO BE BACK IN THIS WINDOW TO BE THE MOST COMPETITIVE TEAM, IN THIS DIVISION WITH THE BUFFALO BILLS. NOT US LIKE WE WERE, WE WERE RIGHT THERE. WHY? LIKE, HOW, HOW DID WE GET PAST? WHY ARE WE NOT? SO I, I DO THINK IT, IT, IT’S GOING TO BE A CHANGE. AND I THINK, I THINK YOU’VE SAID IT BEFORE IN OUR VIEWING ROOM OF PEOPLE WILL CONTINUE TO BE CHANGED AROUND WHETHER IT’S A HIGH PAID QUARTERBACK OR A YOUNG QUARTERBACK, THAT YOU SPEND A LOT OF DRAFTS STOCKING. AND I THINK THAT’S WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN HERE IN MIAMI. LIKE TUA, GOT PAID, AND I’M NOT SAYING THIS IS ALL TOO IS FAULT, BUT LIKE I DON’T KNOW. IS IT MIKE? MCDANIEL? IS HE THE REASON THIS TEAM’S NOT WINNING WHEN HE CAME IN? HE WAS THE GUY THAT GOT TO IT RIGHT NOW TO WIN AND DOING ALL THOSE THINGS BUT HE WILL PROBABLY BE THE GUY THAT GETS CHANGED EVEN THOUGH WE SAW HIM COMING HERE AND HAVE SUCCESS. WE SAW BRIAN FLORES GOING TO MIAMI AT 56. I DON’T KNOW. YOU SAID IT LIKE THESE TEAMS, THEY CONTINUE TO DO THE SAME THING, EVEN THOUGH IT DOESN’T WORK. I WOULD IMAGINE MIAMI DOES THE SAME THING THAT MIGHT NOT RESULT TO YIELD BETTER RESULTS, BUT IT’LL BE A CHANGE TO HAVE THE 1 YEAR 2023 WHERE HE WENT WIRE TO WIRE IN THE IRONY, THERE IS THAT’S THE YEAR THAT QUARTERBACKS FOR INJURED LEFT AND RIGHT. HE’S 1 OF THE NOT FEW, BUT IN THE WHOLE SEASON. THE NEXT YEAR, HE WAS IN HIS FIFTH YEAR. OPTION, 24 MILLION IN CHANGE, I BELIEVE AND FOR WHATEVER REASON, THEY FELT COMPELLED TO TEAR IT UP AND GIVE HIM A MARKET LEVEL CONTRACT, AND WE WERE SAYING, DON’T DO IT. I WAS SAYING, DON’T DO IT AS LOUDLY AS I WAS SAYING TO THE RAMS IN 2019. DON’T DO IT WITH JARED GOFF, DON’T DO IT. WHO YOU WHO, YOU BIDDING AGAINST. WHO ARE YOU COMPETING WITH? WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS? LET’S SEE IF HE CAN DO IT ANOTHER YEAR AND IF HE CAN GOOD PROBLEM TO HAVE FRANCHISE TAG HIM SIGN HIM TO A NEW CONTRACT, THEN MAKE HIM PROVE THAT HE CAN STAY HEALTHY AGAIN BECAUSE THEN WHAT HAPPENED LAST YEAR AFTER? THEY PAID HIM CONCUSSION 2, I THINK IT WAS WEEK, 2 BILLS BUT CONCUSSION AND NOT ONLY STUCK. DEAL DEVIN. THEY COMMITTED TO SIGNING. YEARS. MIAMI. NEXT YEAR, THEY’RE STUCK. FOR 1 MORE YEAR FINANCIALLY, THEY DON’T HAVE TO PLAY HIM. BUT THEY GOT TO PAY HIM. IT ALL STARTS WITH FAILURE. OWNERSHIP CREATES THESE MESSES OWNERSHIP PUTS PEOPLE IN PLACE, WHO MAKE THESE MISTAKES. AND THEY MAKE STRATEGIC THAN WINNING. WE WANT TO SHOW THAT WE WERE RIGHT TO TRUST TUA. THAN JUSTIN HERBERT. CONTRACT. AND THAT WAS LIKE ANY TIME ANY TEAM IS ABOUT TO GIVE A MARKET LEVEL CONTRACT TO ANY PLAYER. IT’S FAIR TO ASK IF THIS GUY WAS ON THE MARKET RIGHT NOW, HOW MUCH IT? THERE’S NO WAY WE SHOULD BE PAYING A PENNY MORE THAN THAT. I MEAN, IT’S TRUE. AND FOR SOME REASON, I FEEL LIKE EVERY OTHER POSITION IS LIKE THAT. OTHER THAN QUARTERBACK QUARTERBACK’S, THE 1 WHERE THE FEAR OF NOT HAVING A GUY AT THE HELM, WHETHER THAT’S TO WIN GAMES OR HAVING A GUY AT THE HELM THAT YOU CAN SELL TICKETS AND, AND HAVE PEOPLE SAY, HEY, WHEN I LOOK AT THIS TEAM, I ENVISIONED THIS GUY AT QUARTERBACK AND THAT MAKES ME WANT TO BUY MERCHANDISE, BE A FAN, LIKE I DON’T KNOW IF THAT PLAYS A PART FROM A BUSINESS STANDPOINT, THESE OWNERS ARE BUSINESSMEN. I DON’T KNOW IF THEY SAY, HEY, LIKE WE CAN NEVER NOT HAVE A FACE OF THE FRANCHISE, BE THIS QUARTERBACK, THAT’S EITHER YOUNG AND UP-AND-COMING OR THIS VETERAN GUY THAT PEOPLE CAN GET BEHIND. MAYBE THAT HAS A LOT TO DO WITH IT, BUT I AGREE WITH YOU LIKE EVERY TIME SOMEBODY BECOMES A FREE AGENT OR THEY’RE GOING TO BE A FREE AGENT OR THE OPTIONS UP LIKE EVERY OTHER TEAM, LIKE YOU LOOK AND YOU SAY, HEY IF THIS GUY WAS A FREE AGENT, WHAT OTHER GUYS WOULD, WE TAKE OVER THEM? THE FIRST TIME I CONTRACT WAS UP, THEY WERE LIKE, EARL THOMAS IS THE CREAM OF THE CROP LIKE IT’S THAT’S THE TOP WE’RE NOT GOING PAST THAT LIKE IF WE DON’T THINK YOU’RE THAT AND THEN THEY THEY MOVE YOU DOWN, THEY NAMED ANOTHER GUY, THIS GUY THAT GUY, AND OKAY, YOU FALL RIGHT HERE. BUT FOR SOME REASON, THE QUARTERBACK POSITION IS OKAY. ALL RIGHT, WE ALREADY KNOW THERE’S 4 GUYS THAT WE THINK ARE DIFFERENT THAN EVERYBODY ELSE. ALL RIGHT. WELL I WANT MORE THAN HIM. IT’S LIKE WAIT WHAT? IT’S A IT’S A WEIRD THING BUT IT HAPPENS YEAR AFTER YEAR WITH THE QUARTERBACK POSITION. I I I I DON’T GET IT AND IT IT DOESN’T PRODUCE WINS. I THINK THAT’S THE FUNNY THING ABOUT IT. IT DOESN’T MAKE THE TEAM THAT DOES IT. IT DOESN’T MAKE THEM GO. I WON’T EVEN SAY, WIN A SUPER IT. IT DOESN’T EVEN MAKE THEM REALLY NFC OR AFC CONTENDERS TO GO AND BE IN THE LAST GAME IN THE AFC OR NFC WITH A CHANCE TO GO TO THE SUPER BOWL BUT IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. YEAH. 2 IS IN THE MID-50S AND THEY HAVEN’T BEEN TO THE PLAYOFFS SINCE THEY SIGNED INTO THAT CONTRACT. AND THAT WAS JUST LAST YEAR, BUT STILL, THEY DIDN’T MAKE THE PLAYOFFS LAST YEAR, AND IT LOOKS LIKE THEY’RE NOT GOING MEANWHILE, THE BUCCANEERS WITH THE BEST DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR BARGAIN, WE’VE EVER SEEN ON A MULTI-YEAR DEAL IN BAKER. MAYFIELD YOU BETTER PAY HIM, TAMPA BAY, IT’S ONLY GOING TO GET MORE EXPENSIVE. ALL RIGHT, LET’S TAKE A BREAK. IT’S TUESDAYS WITH MORDY, IT’S HIT BY A TRUCK TUESDAY, IT’S ALSO DR. DOOM TUESDAY. BECAUSE WHEN WE RETURN, WE’RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE MESS IN PHILADELPHIA. IT’S NOT OUR FAULT. THE MESSES ARE OUT THERE. WE’RE JUST TRY

There was a window where Mike McDaniel could have potentially built some job security, but that all came crashing down when the Dolphins fell to the Panthers Sunday. #NBCSports #NFL #ProFootballTalk

  3. They need to move to 4-3, they don't have a choice at this point. They have to stop the run, but the backfield is so bad they would get exposed. It's not weaver, it's McDaniel this falls on Grier with his inability to pick and bring in non hurt players. You have bad players under poor coaching and bad schemes.

  7. LMAOOO. Every team that loses to the Panthers does soul searching and somebody gonna get fired🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  9. Tua is better than Justin Herbert though. Justin has Harbaugh and a top 5 defense, yet still cant win. Tua has led Miami to far more points than Herbert with a bottom of the league oline and the worst defense in the league. Dolphins were outrushed by TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN YARDS. These losses dont fall on Tua Florio, be real

  10. Way to go out on a limb Mike. Show some balls and talk about John Harbaugh. McDaniel is low hanging fruit. Save winning the Super Bowl Mike McDaniel will not be the coach of the Dolphins next year. Who cares if he gets fired now or after the season – it’s not going to change anything. Vince Lombardi couldn’t win with this roster.

  11. Firing McD means nothing. Grier has to go. I can see McD staying the year under a new GM who takes time to assess which players to keep and which to shop, to study contracts and ponder the draft, while clarifying a vision of what the team will be. If McD fits with that, keep him; if not, let him go. But let the decision be the new GMs. To just dump McD and keep Grier would be madness.

  12. Justin Herbert😂…Oh funny how Hebert can't play with an injured OL now..Look at his last 2 games…….Guess..what TUA has been playing with this his entire career in Miami…This season..4th string RG..Backup RT…Rookie LG who is graded out as the worst offensive lineman in the league thru 5 games and Maimi refuses to bench him because he is a rookie..Miami has the 30th rushing offense in football…yet TUA is tied for 3rd in passing TD's in the NFL.. Yeah get rid of him when everything around himself is bad.

  13. This game ain’t tuas fault that’s crazy😂😂😂😂oline garbage the WHOLE defense NEEDS TO BE FIRED jack jones held EVERY receiver he was covering our front 4 CANT generate pressure and that’s EVERY GAME since week 1 like it was his fault against buffalo but he didn’t turnover the ball this week.

  17. Tua is not the reason they lost today. Tua is not the reason they’re having a losing season.

    Why does this show host always jump on Tua first?

    Fix the defense, play calling, and offensive line.

    Then talk about Tua.

  31. Don’t forget he took over a winning team which allowed him to have good records at the start of taking over the Dolphins 🐬

  32. Owner of the Miami Dolphins needs to go , sale the franchise. Ross doesn't understand how the NFL game is played, doesn't understand has no clue how to build a championship team for the next 10 12 with Super Bowl wins.
