His mentor Kyle Shanahan has some of that in him and when the Pegulas interviewed him here in 2015 (before hiring Rex) he went down extremely badly (I was told verbatim "they hated him") to the extent that even though he was the hottest coordinator in football in 2016 the Bills never even considered him in the hiring round of 2017 that eventually brought us McDermott. I think he'd get a second shot at some point, no question. But he isn't going to be everyone's cup of tea.

Something massive like that is the only possible chance McDaniel is fired. Unless of course there’s something weird behind the scenes regarding medical protocol issues. Dolphins made strides this year and he deserves credit. They may have the deepest roster in the division. Just need to get the QB situation right.

Albany,n.y. Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) This would be very stupid because 1) Is it McDaniel's fault he's down to Skylar Thompson at QB? 2) This is the big one-after the Flores lawsuit firing another minority head coach after one season would look very bad & sending the minority GM out the door with him even worse. If they then replace McDaniel with a white guy they would get destroyed in the media. In fact there might even be protests outside the Dolphins stadium.

They’re losing to teams that are more talented or when they didn’t have a healthy Tua. If going 0-4 against the 49ers,chargers,bills, and packers is a foregone conclusion that can be excused as easily after the fact as you are making it sound, you need to fire your coach. If they weren’t playing a third place schedule, that would’ve added even more matchups against playoff caliber teams that they would’ve lost if they are expected to lose games like that. Also, they got lucky running into quite a few very injured teams themselves so their injury excuse isn’t as strong as you think imo. First bills matchup and the ravens game were definite losses for them if we are normalizing team’s injury situations. Bengals game tua was struggling just as much or more so than bridgewater did in the second half. I’d give them the Vikings win and pats win but take away the bills and ravens win and they’d be right back where they started. Tua would’ve absolutely struggled against the jets it’s a monumental collapse finishing 0-6 when you need just one more win to make the playoffs id assume most of the firing talk is based on them wanting their Sean Payton and Brady plan again though and not so much them thinking McDaniel is an bad coach.

Tua almost beat us twice throwing slants and lobs with more hang time than punts. A competent QB would do well with those weapons Despite his brief resurgence the other day, overall the only club left in Brady's bag is the 2 minute drill, which I admit he is still amazing at. Beyond that, he's deteriorating physically and it shows if you've been watching their games this year. And it's going to be yet another year later. I'll take another wasted year for the Phins any day, I stand by it. He is toast in the pocket and against quality defenses.

msw2112 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 I'm not a McDaniel fan, but I have to admit that I think he has done a pretty good job with the Miami team this year. The recent losing streak shouldn't be cause to fire him. They have lost several close games against good opponents, with a concussed QB. I would only hope that they DO fire him so that the dysfunction in South Florida can continue, rather than the Dolphins closing the gap on the Bills. I'm not that concerend about a Brady/Payton thing. Brady is going to be what, 46? He's still better than some QBs, but I no longer see him as a huge threat. I'm also not too concerned about Payton. Yes, he's a proven successful NFL head coach, but it's not like they were in the SB every year. He had a HOF QB in Drew Brees and a good roster. How much success did he have without Brees, or without Brees in his prime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Payton won one Super Bowl with a great Quarterback and suddenly he is viewed as the next Vince Lombardi, yeah whatever. Brady aint gonna get any younger next year, I would love it if the signed him and for a lot of $. Brady should have retired after his Super Bowl with Tampa. Huge mistake to fire McDaniels even though I think he is bizarre and totally botched the concussion non-sense. McDaniels is half AA and after firing Flores under highly dubious conditions, you are going to replace him with Payton? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My god, do the Panther have the most inept cornerbacks in the NFL. Repeatedly letting Mike Evans beat you was comical. Brady was under no pressure on those throws, almost any NFL QB could have hit the TD passes to Evans.

Halftime adjustments, their D figured us out and despite hitting the red zone we could not finish any drives in half 2. Allen walked up and down the field yes, he bails us out from time to time. Miami executed better than we did and came away with the win. I'm willing to pass on that game if people really want to dig their heels in, because I'm not saying that the staff is BETTER than ours, but I think that team built itself for years to catch up to us and that preparation showed. They will not be an existential threat to us as long as allen is here, and our coaches are absolutely capable of swinging the pendulum back at them. In the second game I don't think there's any pushback to the idea that they out-coached us, and that superman Allen saved the day.
